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

Please consider donating to my Calming Center project for my classroom. The items that I am requesting are going to be used to help create a calming center in my classroom. Students in my age group need an area were they can calm themselves down and work on our emotions. The printer will be used to be able to print out visuals and techniques students will be able to see in our center. It will also be used to print out materials to use in other studies we have during the year. Students will use the timers to help them transition back and the visual posters will be posted in the center.
