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

Regulation stations, often called calm corners, serve as designated spaces within schools where students can take a break to manage their emotions and regain focus. These areas are equipped with calming resources that foster emotional regulation, assisting students in navigating stressful situations effectively.

Floor cushioned spots provide soothing options for students to unwind.

Gentle motion aids in reducing anxiety and enhances a sense of safety. Please help make this project happen with your donations! They will make all the difference in the world! Please help in any way you can!

Ms. Ameti Norman S Weir Elementary School Grades PreK-2
