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 Students

Learning should be as easy as 123, but for my students with Autism it's not so easy! New art materials will give my students the supplies they need to do what they love...be creative and then learning will be as easy as 123.

I am a special education teacher working in an urban, high-need community.

My classroom consists of 8 students with Autism. My students range in age from 6 to 10 years old and have a wide range of skills. Three of my students are verbal, with the rest using pictures and speech generating devices to communicate. Most of my students have sensory issues and are challenged to remain still and focused.

My Project

It is my goal to build a well-defined, structured learning environment for my students where they can become successful learners. Despite the many different abilities of my students, they all love art time and several are blessed with amazing art skills. We try to incorporate some sort of art activity at least once a day. Not only do my students enjoy the activity, it's also a great time to work on valuable skills such as vocabulary, following directions and fine motor skills. We are running low on art supplies and still have many weeks of learning and creating ahead of us. A supply of art materials such as crayons, glue, collage activities and rubbing plates and crayons will offer my students the chance to be creative and successful learners.

I come to work every day eager to teach my students.

I am committed to helping them become successful learners. With your support, we can give them the creative learning opportunities they love and I know they will learn as easy as 123!
