Learn and Play

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

My autistic students are special and unique. Each with their own strengths and weaknesses. They can be very hard on learning materials which require replacement of items. Offering them a rotation of educational resources piques their interest and involvement.

To see their eyes light up when they have something new to engage and learn with is priceless.

The support received will go a long way in meeting my students learning needs and will allow me to support their needs in other ways. we will greatly appreciate your support. Thank you

Ms. Perez Mary M Walsh Elementary School Grades PreK-2
