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.
The students in this district are troopers. They continue to work hard even in the upper grades. We have students with a multitude of educational needs. We have students at all the schools who require new devices to assist them with communicating successfully. Some have vision and/or motor needs that require larger devices and/or alternative forms of access to the device. The district needs to have these items to appropriately assess and trial devices to ensure that the students are able to communicate successfully inside and outside of the school setting!
My Project
The facebook portals will allow the speech personnel and the students to converse face to face without them seeing it as a play device since they have never had this device before.
These items will allow the students to independently control their environment while at home during the corona virus stay put order in the county as well as continue to receive speech services face to face with an easy to use interface that also enables environmental controls!
How exciting if we can offer these students these services during a time that they are isolated from family, friends and therapists.
