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 need an area where they can safely rest, identify and readjust their emotional state of being, and check themselves back into balance.

Whether they are experiencing stress, fighting a cold, or feeling like they need a moment to themselves, the purpose of the Calming Corner is to give my driven and kind students a mini oasis in the classroom where they can go, sit, lie down, listen to music with the canceling nose headphones, look at the moon glow and the shining stars, grab a pillow, or hold a stress squiggly toy to soothe them.
