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 deeply committed to my students and their success in developing strong ASL skills. As a teacher of the Deaf, I understand how vital it is for them to have access to engaging, hands-on resources that support their language growth. Our ASL Lab is a space where they can explore, practice, and refine their signing in a way that meets their unique learning needs. By providing materials like ASL storybooks, visual aids, and interactive tools, I can create a rich, immersive environment that fosters both language development and confidence.

My students deserve every opportunity to thrive, and these resources will make a meaningful difference in their education.

With the right tools, they can strengthen their communication skills, deepen their understanding of ASL grammar, and engage in activities that make learning both fun and effective. Every day, I see their enthusiasm and potential, and I want to give them everything they need to succeed. Your support will help ensure that they have the resources necessary to grow into confident, expressive signers.
