Celebrating 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.
The make-up of my self-contained classroom is very special. It is made up of young minds that are eager to learn each and everyday. However, learning is often a challenge for them as my students all have a learning disability ranging from autism, communication impaired, hearing impaired, ADHD, specific learning disability, just to name a few. Learning for them is a challenge, but it is a challenge that each day as an educator I do my best to parallel their disability with success in any way possible and celebrating those successes. Having the right materials and resources will be another tool in my toolbox that with your help, we can supply for my students and allow them to continually have success in the classroom.
My Project
For special education self-contained students learning is a challenge. Imagine not having your teacher to help you step by step in a classroom that is your comfort zone, surrounded by your friends and in a place where sometimes you call “home.” This time is difficult for all of us. With these materials, I want to create bins for each of my students to create projects, explore their imagination and creativity at home and share with me virtually. A lot of these materials we use at school, but the students do not have them at home. With these art supplies, it will build my students' confidence, motivation, and bring a smile to their face in a time that’s very stressful for all. The materials will also be used for creativity and the students will be able to share with me their creations virtually, whether for a writing assignment, a math assignment, or just a choice for show and tell with them class over a video chat. Let’s bridge the gap and try to bring school into their homes as well as bring a smile to their faces!
