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 establish a mental health/ wellness corner in my classroom by providing snacks and anxiety resources. Having a pantry to support all students who might be facing anxiety or food insecurity is essential.

Ensuring that students have access to resources, snacks and personalized items can help improve their overall mental health and well being.

Having snacks and a wellness corner will motivate students who often avoid class to look forward to attending knowing that our classroom is a safe space with an area dedicated to their needs.

I look forward to putting this area together for my students.
