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

This project will help my students learn about emotions and how to express themselves in and outside of the classroom. Students will learn how to communicate with others and practice positive talk and responsibility. These tools will help my students make positive choices that will directly effect school, family, and community! Help me empower my students in creating a positive environment. They will use books, games, and conversation starters to help them cope and manage their feelings. This project will help my students work on much needed life skills for success!!
