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

Please help me create a student corner for social-emotional health. My special education students often need a calming place to help with their social-emotional needs. They struggle with their feelings and emotions on a regular basis. We need your help to create a space where our students feel safe and calm.

I will use the rug, floral decorations, and alternative seating to help create a space where students can go when they feel overwhelmed.

The lights will help when we need to turn off the harsh lighting in our classroom. This will help calm my students who are affected by bright lights. The sensory toys will be used to help my students calm down when they need them. These items will create a safe area in our classroom. My students can use this area to reflect on their feelings and emotions. Once they are feeling better, they can join the class and continue learning. This would be a great help for my students because when they do not have a safe space to deal with their emotional needs they often become overwhelmed and cannot concentrate on their work.
