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

What I love about my students is their enthusiasm to learn something new. I work with students with Autism Spectrum Disorder K-8. Each year, I help my students with their social skills and communication in many different ways to prepare them to work with others, socialize with peers and express themselves while learning important social cues.

The materials in this project are fun activities that teach students how to work through different social situations.

My students love the role playing in the activities and helps give them the practice they need to be confident in social situations.
