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

These supplies are being used to create a special calming area in my classroom where students can relax. Proven to help with the contemporary stresses of student life, these supplies will work to create an environment that suits student needs

This will be a quiet area of the room where students can go to unwind, reflect on their days, relax and de-stress amidst the chaos of school.

With your support, I hope to be able to have these soothing items and create a relaxing space that will benefit students emotionally, mentally and physically while they are at school.

Thank you for supporting the calming area in my classroom!
