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

We are looking for new and engaging materials to help our students learn the best way they can. All of our students are autistic and require hands-on materials to help them learn and retain skills. These resources will help increase their knowledge on reading, writing and math.

Our students learn best when having fun!

Who doesn't? To help our autistic students stay engaged with their learning, we come up with a specific plan to target their individual goals with toys and materials they find comforting. Many of our students also have sensory needs, and they very much benefit from the use of bean bag and ball chairs which allow them to be calm and help them regulate their emotions. We hope you will help us acquire these very much needed items to help our students grow as learners.
