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

Play-Doh, fidgets and sensory toys help our Special Education children focus and give them hands-on learning experiences to build their communication, play, and social learning skills.

I will use these tools to facilitate language through play with my students with and without Autism.

They benefit from hands-on motivational learning experiences in conjunction with visual supports, sentence starters, and core boards to improve their communication skills.

Your support to provide these materials will provide my students with the tools they need to be successful and provide them with the motivation they need.
