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

These items are needed for the many different learning abilities in our classroom. They will help our students succeed and learn to regulate their emotions. The tent will be a great addition to our calm down corner when my students are feeling their big emotions they can have a nice quiet space to help calm them. The lava lamp would also be a nice addition to our calm down corner. My students love anything that lights up or glows. I know they would love it so much.

The goal of this project is to better support all students and their needs.

My students work hard every day to succeed in the classroom. I would love to make their success as easy as possible.
