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 students are all children with Autism. This year I currently only have kindergartners. They are ages five and six.

Most of my students are non-verbal with limited communication skills!

They need different learning modalities and activities to understand their environment. I am requesting LEGO Duplo starter sets and building bases in order learn how to design and build during STEM activities.

Many children with Autism have difficulty with fine motor skills. In my experience teaching students to develop STEM designs in fun and different ways help to teach them in a way they will remember. Teaching them this in Kindergarten will allow them to have more success throughout their educational career.
