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 Students

My students range from Freshmen through Seniors, all with learning disabilities and dyslexia, who are either non-readers or reading no higher than a 3rd grade level. They require multi-modes of input to learn. They are part of a multi-sensory reading program, which is a highly structured program using many styles of learning in a self-contained setting to provide intensive supports in a small group setting.

Our school is a neighborhood school located in a high poverty area with limited resources, so there is a lack of materials and resources to support and engage students.

With schools being closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, my students are having a hard time with e-learning from home. They don't have the experience or enough knowledge of technology to easily transition to virtual learning.

My students work really hard to improve their reading and with the use of a variety of materials, they will be able to continue to improve their reading using multi-modes of learning input from home.

My Project

My students are part of my multi-sensory reading program which provides them a highly intensive reading intervention using structured lessons and specific materials.

During the school closures due to the coronavirus pandemic, it has been difficult for students to have access to the appropriate materials.

The Portable Scanner will allow me to scan specific wordlist, sentence, and passage pages from the students' appropriate multisensory books so I can email to students. The Document Camera will allow me to project materials in real-time during a virtual reading lesson so students can see the materials I am using.

My students will truly benefit from these items and will help me provide them with a better virtual learning experience. Thank you in advance for your support.
