Celebrating 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
I am a special education teacher working in a first grade ICT classroom. As a teacher in a low-income district, my students face many challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite all of these challenges, my students walk into school each morning eager and ready to learn. I'm looking to provide my students with meaningful and authentic learning experiences so that they are able to grow in all aspects of their lives.
My students are funny, creative, and love to move!
They thrive from being able to create and explore with hands-on materials. They want learn first grade "things" and are motivated to succeed just as much as I want them to!
In an ICT setting, we push for our students to thrive both academically and socially. We place a strong emphasis on building social skills, using kind words, having a caring heart, and working as a team! We are full of acceptance and learning to incorporate and appreciate each other's differences.
My Project
My students need multiple resources in order to meet their sensory needs. They need a wobble cushion to fidget and build their cores, a chair band to kick as a non-disruptive fidget, and a weighted stuffed animal cushion to relax their bodies in a kid-friendly way.
All kids learn best when they are comfortable - especially my students!
My students deserve the best possible learning environment for their needs. In order for them to be able to stay focused on learning, their sensory needs must be met. These resources will help my students to regulate their behaviors and engage in their work.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
