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 awesome! They come to school with excitement to learn. Some come to school and are anxious or stressed for many different reasons. They work hard but at times need some TLC. Some come to school and have issues with their teeth. Their teeth may be hurting or not cleaned properly.

My project will help give my students the tools to be healthy in body and mind.

The calming tent and stress balls will be used as a tool to relieve the anxiety or stress a student may be feeling. They will be able to work as they use the tool to calm down. The toothbrushes and toothpaste will be a tool sent home after teaching them proper dental hygiene.

My students will engage in health lessons to learn the importance of these tools and on how to stay healthy in body and mind.
