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 Students

The students that I work with have unique needs as they cope with a wide variety of social, emotional, and behavioral challenges which oftentimes impede their ability to successfully navigate situations in school, home, and the community. They have issues controlling their anger, coping with their emotions and feelings, interacting appropriately with peers and adults, and expressing themselves in a socially acceptable manner. Many of my students have high levels of anxiety which makes it difficult for them to control their behavior and to stay focused and on tasks. These roadblocks cause them to have frequent problems regulating their daily interactions with others as well as progressing to their maximum potential.

My students are set up to succeed and are very proud of their accomplishments no matter how small they may be.

To see my students come to school every day with an eagerness to learn, socialize, exercise and better themselves is very rewarding. My students can accomplish whatever they want when given the structure, tools, support, and motivation.

My Project

The requested materials will be used to help students manage their everyday stress both at school and from the difficulties they face at home. My students receive regular counseling sessions that provide them with coping skills, strategies, and scenarios that allow them to practice with situations that they may encounter each day. Using exercise equipment like yoga balls, and stretch bands as an outlet for managing their stress, my students will better be able to control their anger, cope with their feelings and emotions, and interact appropriately with peers and adults, a life skill that will take them into adulthood. The snacks will provide a source of immediate gratification for their hunger after a light work out and the atomizer will assist when teaching them breathing and meditation techniques to also combat their anxiety and stress.
