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

We are a high school, special ed class in an awesome 109-year-old high school that services those with low-income and Title I needs. Our class consists of students with a wide range of abilities from autism to speech language impairments and cognitively delays.

Every day is a new adventure when we enter our doors.

We have quite an assortment of interests and skills and we like to see how many different ways we can incorporate them into our daily lives.

My Project

All students need the opportunity to express themselves through art, especially students with special needs. I am blessed with a crew of incredibly creative and talented students. My project includes paper, markers, crayons, and colored pencils to draw what is in their imaginative minds. I have included the other materials such as googly eyes, pipe cleaners, tape, glue sticks, and buttons in order to get their imaginations really flowing!

How invigorating is it to sit down with the pile of materials, all waiting to be assembled into something magical?

My students will thrive in that setting by doing that and so much more!
