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

As a 1st-year guidance counselor in a low-income, high-poverty school district, I work with Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd. My students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking for my children to extend their academic achievement, personal/ social development, and positive behavior in and outside the classroom.

My Project

The beanbag and pillows for this project are necessary items for creating a welcoming, comfortable and accessible space for students in my counselor's office. Students need to feel comfortable, safe, and engaged in my office to open up, work through issues, and come to solutions together.

Social, emotional learning activities will be addressed using different activities to accommodate each child's goal.

These resources will support social and emotional development and better understand ways to demonstrate topics such as hola setting and demonstrating empathy.

In addition, these items will introduce creative ways in which the students will relate to the target themes, learning objectives and provide a warm and welcoming environment.
