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
As this school year comes to the end, I can still say that I have a great bunch of scholars. I teach a self-contained, special education class and my students have a variety of disabilities. My school is a high needs school and my students deserve every opportunity available to help them succeed in anything they would want to accomplish. I am lucky enough to help them do this and be a part of their lives this year as we become a little "family".
They need to learn throughout different modalities because of their disabilities.
I want to make learning fun, exciting, enjoyable and memorable for them. My challenge will be getting them to their grade level when many are behind. My scholars are very special children.
They all have different obstacles in their way but come to school everyday ready to learn. At times, they need constant praise and encouragement to get them back on track. It is a high needs school where many kids are at a disadvantage.
My Project
As the school year comes to an end I would like to send my scholars who have become "my kids" home with a kit to help them keep clean. The kit would include toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash, deodorant, hand sanitizer, tissues and, of course, some snacks. I believe this helps their self esteem, knowing the are clean and smell good. This helps them want to participate in all activities over the summer months. Many of the student come to summer school and participate in school activities. I have noticed dirty clothes being worn all week. They have also mentioned that they don't have this or don't have that to help keep up with hygiene issues.
