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 classroom is a self-contained severe profound class. We are looking to enhance our students sensory and fine motor skills. We will use the fidget toys, sensory items, light covers, plant dome, and other items to help our students with fine motor sensory regulation and processing. We currently do not have anything of this nature in the classroom and our students needs are high in this area. With these items we could provide my students with a wide variety of needs and levels a safe and effective sensory calming environment. Please help our class.
