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 the great privilege of teaching 8 amazing young learners on the Autism Spectrum. The grade levels in my class vary each year; and this year my classroom consists of students in grades 1 through 5. That being said, the educational levels of the students in my classroom vary greatly.

It can be difficult to find reading materials or programs that address such wide range of educational needs.

I would be using this Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to purchase parts of the "Made for Me Literacy" curriculum. What's amazing about this curriculum is that all of my learners can be working on the same "stories" or "themes", yet each be working with materials that are specifically differentiated to their individual literacy levels.

These materials would make a huge difference to our classroom of multi-grade learners with Autism. It takes a village; and I am greatful to anyone who chooses to be a part of ours.
