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

Fidget toys are something my students are in constant need of. It truly helps them focus.

I love being a hub of support for my students and I want them to feel comfortable and support when the come into my classroom.

Having an assortment will allow students to choose which they need for the day. And then we can sanitize them since they are moving from room to room.

Also, with having a small snack in the room will help. Some students do not eat the school lunch so a little something goes a long way.

I want my students to know that they are fully supported and valued.
