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
Some of my students, who are between the ages of five and eight years old, have Autism or Down Syndrome. Unfortunately, they are also low income. They are very loving, but at times they do not know how to socialize with others. They always come in each day with a positive and respectful attitude and are ready to work. They are like any other students but they learn in a different way. Each day they overcome obstacles and make great progress.
My Project
Some of my students are nonverbal and can only express themselves by using gestures, pointing, or putting things on paper. My students like to express themselves and even put it in book form. Why not give them the opportunity to express themselves and be creative at the same time? To do these types of projects we need the requested HP printer color and black ink cartridges, laminating paper, and velcro.
My students love putting things down on paper.
Having a supply of printer ink will give them the opportunity to express themselves and be creative at the same time. Their words could come to life. Not only could the words come to life, but they would be able to print out their words and pictures, laminate them, and velcro them to their books to share with their family and peers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
