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 amazing special education students are in need of new bean bags for our calming corner. My students vary in their challenges and some even enjoy doing their assigned work in the calming corner. They find it more relaxing.

Sitting in the bean bags allows them to reflect about their behaviors and relax in a calm, comfortable place.

Our old bean bags were passed down by a previous teacher and they are very much in need of an upgrade. We also need a portable speaker so that I can play calm, relaxing music in my calming corner to help my students mental health.

Studies show that students tend to calm down if they are hearing calming nature sounds.

My students, despite all their challenges in learning, want to be in school and are eager to learn new skills daily. That's what makes them so special.
