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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students have various special education needs, one of them being language and communication needs. Being in an early elementary classroom means that they have to be prepared for pre-school activities when time comes for them to move on to the next class.

Being diagnosed with autism comes with many challenges, and all my students are non verbal.

To help us with communication, we use visuals to communicate. We need help with printing images and laminating them with the laminator to create visual schedules and communication boards for each student. The gloves will assist in their toileting needs like changing diapers and potty training.

Your contribution will really go a long way in helping us with our day to day activities.
