Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My project wil help me to find new and fun ways to encourage my students with Autism to read. Reading to my students helps them in language development and listening skills. Reading helps autistic children develop mentally and grow in some areas that they struggle in. I want to offer support for my autistic students by helping them find joy in reading. Reading a variety of books will allow me to develop their special interest. Reading enables children to learn about what their special interest are, and it also helps them learn about social interactions. Reading will help my students boost their cognitive development in a fun educational way.
