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

I teach a group of 6th graders with Autism. They have different abilities, levels and needs. They are a handful, and it is the most rewarding job in the world! I know my kids have amazing learning potential, but behaviors get in the way.

I have a varied assortment of goodies in my cart that I think will help.

From dealing with their sensory and social emotional needs to teaching remedial skills they somehow missed. I spend my own money, and lots of it. Help me help them. Thank you.

Mrs. Edgerton Fred W Traner Middle School Grades 6-8
