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 Students

As a special education teacher in a Title I school, most of my students endure many struggles. My students have learned to adapt to their learning environment through perseverance and support from our school staff. My students are excited about school and enjoy learning new concepts.

All of my students have a variety of learning disabilities.

My students work very hard throughout the year to achieve academic and social growth.

My Project

This school year is unique in so many ways. However, we must shake off all the uncertainties and make the best of our current situation as we embark in distance learning.

Distance learning is definitely lending itself to new opportunities to learn outside of our norm.

All of my students have a disability ranging from specific learning, autism, and other health impairment. Most of my students are also primarily English Learners. In addition to being in special education classes, my students mainstream with the general education classes for part of their day.

My students and families have been doing their best with distance learning and keeping up with all of their Zoom meetings. However, my students are highly distracted and require a quiet environment, free from distracting noises that may hinder their learning.

Therefore, please help my students with acquiring headphones with microphones so they can participate in distance learning with fewer interruptions.

Thank you for viewing my project and for your support.
