Block Out the Distractions One Head at A Time!

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

My students work well when they feel safe, and comfortable. The rug for the cozy corner will give my students a place to go and relax and refocus. The headphones are for their chrome books which, will allow students to focus on themselves and their own learning during small groups. These sensory items will support student with focusing during learning times.

Think back when you where in school and you didnt have all the materials and supports you needed for school.

How did that make you feel? Most of my students families are unable to purchase these much needed essentials for their children.

Please help me give my babies a good start to the school year with the much needed materials, they will use in our fun, loving, inclusive, thriving environment. Thank you in advance for your support!
