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

The students that I am teaching this year really benefit from manipulatives to help them keep focused during class time. To help keep them organized, I am asking for support with bins on the desks for the students. This year I am teaching in multiple different classroom locations and need additional supplies to have this set up in multiple rooms.

The fidgets will help the students to help to focus and meet their social and emotional anxieties.

The fidgets that I picked were self-selected by the students, these are putty which they have said is better than stress balls. In addition, they have picked out playdoh to have a softer version of the putty when they need a different version depending on their anxieties or stress levels. The bins are to keep all the materials organized for each table group as they enter the classroom. The students themselves have advocated for these specific different fidgets to add to our classroom environment.
