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

I have several students this year with special needs that require sensory breaks and stimulation. This project is to give them those supplies they need to use during the day. These liquid letters and other fidgets will allow them to have their own box of items to choose from when they need a break.

These items will allow them to fidget with the materials while listening to lessons or participating in activities while giving them the much needed sensory stimulation they require.

This allows all students to be in the classroom with their peers and be successful in their learning.
