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

Hi, my name is Ms. Angela and this is my 3rd year as a school counselor. I was hoping you could help me finish up my classroom with some awesome board games, some cool fidgets for my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, and some soft seats for them to sit as a group to share out. Some sand play and sensory bins to keep my students feeling at ease when they are in my classroom.

I want to be able to help my students find ways to calm down and work on their emotions throughout the year and with some new features in the classroom.

They will be thrilled to know Ms. Angela finally updated her classroom with some cool new toys and games.
