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

Hello world! This year, I begin my first year as a life and job skills teacher for significantly and profoundly special needs students. Because of the level of my population's cognitive abilities, I need a wealth of supplementary materials to support their individual needs. This includes communication tools, content manipulatives, social and emotional learning tools, organization materials, etc. The materials that I am asking for now will have an immediate impact on my incoming students and many students in the future. Thank you for your generous donation to a very special classroom community.
