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

My students are all with me for special education support. Their disabilities range from cognitive delays, developmental delays, autism to emotional or specific learning disabilities. Many of these students have been with me for a few years now so we have developed cohesive relationships within my resource room. The students are all assigned to a general education homeroom and come to me for anywhere between one and four periods a day depending on their level of need. Most come for reading, writing, and math. They all benefit from small group or one to one instruction. Most have accommodations, modifications, and need supports such as multi-sensory instruction, repeated lessons, or work broken into very manageable chunks. The kids love to learn through art, games, and enjoy stories and any hands-on learning activities. They often work together, sometimes by age and sometimes the older students assist the youngest ones. It is a nurturing, calm, and engaging resource room. The space is small yet full of fun!

My Project

Kids love working on computers in all subjects. As a special education teacher, my kids need a lot of 1-1 support so I try to organize my day into center based learning which lets kids rotate around the room and I get to work with a group during each rotation.

Students need all the practice they can get and Chromebooks are essential learning tools!

I have specific programs I set up on the computers that are leveled, engaging, and provide the support the kids need. This will be my third request for Chromebooks and I will soon have enough for 2 computer centers!

The kids take great care of them, I purchased all new headphones this year and the center is one of the big hits daily. We are asking for one more computer so we can divide our growing center into 2 groups. Thank you for your consideration!
