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 am a speech therapist working in a special needs public school serving middle school students. Our students have special needs, ranging from diagnoses of autism, intellectual disabilities, and severe emotional needs that make learning in a typical classroom setting challenging. Three-quarters of our student population comes from low-income households and most qualify for free school lunch. Our student population is very mixed, and within a diagnosis so are their abilities and needs. Our school provides them with smaller special education classes and extra support through therapy, counseling, and individualized attention so that they can reach their highest potential.

Our students are such great motivated learners.

They work so hard and love to learn. Our students learn in different ways and benefit from interacting with learning materials. Therefore, we need adapted books and adapted learning materials. We need to adapt books so that our students can engage with the books and participate in their learning.

These adapted books and materials help the students engage and participate in the lesson, and have a hands-on experience in their education.

Teachers Pay Teachers has materials that are adaptable and interactive (such as BOOM cards and adaptable books) and other materials that are greatly motivating and engaging, which my students greatly enjoy. These new materials would increase student engagement and student success. Having said materials would help me continue helping our students continue learning, and making engaging, adapted, and specific resources for all of my students!
