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'm a special education teacher that wants to get different materials for my students with disabilities. I'm going to be teaching students with different disabilities.

My students need different materials, specifically manipulatives and visuals to learn and achieve their goals.

With such manipulatives as dice, fidgets and magnet blocks, the students can practice math, reading, writing and so much more.

All my students love to play and learn. Through games and having different materials, they have the opportunity to choose what to use to accomplish the goal.

One of the most important accommodations for my students is to use manipulatives, and with this new material, I can have different options for my students.
