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 Project
Hello, please help my special education k3 students meet their goals, and flourish socially for their first school experience. I want their first school experience to be positive, warm, and memorable. Learning is challenging when you're born with a disability but with the right materials we can add one less barrier to challenges my students experience.
My goal is to have students engaged in crafts that foster academic learning such as numbers, shapes, colors, and alphabet recognition.
I also included fidget toys, lighting, and visual sensory items that can help some students who experience high anxiety which is common with many autistic students.
I want my students to have enough materials ,so they always feel eager to learn and excited about new materials to use.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
