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

My students are very special because they are survivors of these unprecedented times. They come to school full of life, ready to learn, and ready to face new challenges.

A Calming Corner will give them the opportunity to better cope with their daily worries and focus in their academics.

This corner tools will help them manage their emotions and help them grow and improve their peer relationships with friends at school and at home consequently creating better citizens.

The Flex-space Floor Seats as well as the Rainbow Liquid Sensory Viewers, the Fidget Poppers and Mindset Practice Journals Will assist with Social Emotional Learning in my classroom.
