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

I love that our students are open to trying new items. This makes them feel special because they can be flexible and cooperative with new ideas/tools. These tools will help them learn new ways to manage behavior and emotions, and to also learn that it is okay to need different tools to help learn.

Providing the students with solutions to help manage their feelings and behavior will teach them that their is always a way.

If something does not work or you need help managing their is a tool out there for you!
