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

The goal of this project is to provide students with tools, like stress balls, that help them manage their emotions, reduce stress, and develop healthy coping strategies.

The items I’m requesting, like stress balls, will help my students manage stress and emotions so they can stay calm, refocus, and stay engaged.

My students face challenges every day but show up ready to learn and grow. The snacks will be used to reward their hard work and perseverance, giving them a little extra encouragement to keep pushing forward.

My students will greatly benefit from this project!
