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

For many of my students coming to our class if their first experience in education or first time being away from home. We work hard on building a sense of community and making sure that everyone feels like they belong.

We can teach students how to replace negative behaviors with positive alternatives.

Social emotional norms also need to be taught and explained to the children. These books and supplies will be great tools in teaching the students. How to be a Bucket Filler shows students how to be kind and help others feel good. How to Train Your Amygdala Calming Kit explains to students how their brains actually work and teaches techniques to calm down. These supplies can be used whole group and in small group. They will help give students an understanding of their emotions.
