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 Students

Many of my students with autism have 5 or more risk factors, such as coming from low income, single parent households, having multiple disabilities, and being minority students coming from homes where English is not the primary language. The students are enthusiastic about learning and want to learn. Sometimes they have difficulties expressing themselves or asking for help or supplies, but when they have fun activities, or preferred tasks, they become engaged and express themselves to peers. The number of students has been increasing so we need a variety of activities to engage individual learners.

My Project

Having Autism is a gift that allows student to see through a different lens. In the classroom it can cause anxiety or stress because of the different way students think and process information. Students need to learn about autism and that it may cause anxiety, as well as, learn strategies to deal with anxiety and task completion.

Students need strategies to empower them to become independent learners.

Students will play games, and participate in lessons with activities to address how they are feeling and expected actions.

I will use the books, gift card and games to create lessons or present lessons for students to communicate and self-reflect on how they think and feel. Students will listen, read, write, play games, as well as, use yoga to relax and deal with autism in a classroom setting either virtually or face to face.
