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 am a Teacher of Students with Disabilities. Many of my students are also English Language Learners. Part of my daily responsibilities is to focus on small group instruction of two to four students per session.

Handwriting Without Tears offers children an opportunity to learn using a multi-sensory approach.

This will ensure that the experience is fun and exciting! Many of my students have not had the opportunity to receive direct instruction for Handwriting. Not having this opportunity is impacting their success in all academic areas. I would like to take this opportunity to make a difference in their educational journey!
