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 love that my students are fun, creative, and hardworking. With the help of sensory items, they will be able to develop and better perform their sensory-motor. For example, throughout the day students work in groups after the groups student are given a break in which they can work on their sensory motor. The items will provide students with motives to complete their assignments and to stay on task. The items would allow students to have items for their break, besides having a fun break the items will help each student to develop social skills and communication skills.
