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.
My Project
Students with Autism can have severe challenges with social and recreational skills, and they may have challenges in communicating using techniques to deescalate and relax. For my classroom, I know first hand how important it is to have as many tools as possible to cope with stress and anxiety. For my students with Autism, sitting in a calm corner on a bean bag or using a squeezing item helps cope with their anxiety and stress that they do not have the words to communicate. For my students, counting basic change and money can have a big impact in their lives. Therefore, this money calculator technology will help improve both thee quality of their live by providing them opportunities to be more independent. The items I’m requesting for my project will help my students with severe coping skills. The goal is to decrease the individualized deficits (individualized education plan’s with social and emotional goals in them) by creating a calm and engaging classroom environment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
