Calming Area

Help me give my students a light table, yoga kit, and more for an area where they have the opportunity to calm themselves and self regulate their emotions when feeling overwhelmed or are having any other type of negative feelings.

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 are inquisitive, excited about learning new things, and developing skills to help them become more independent in all aspects of learning. We need a light table, yoga kit, calming cuddle ball, and more!

These items will enhance their ability to self regulate and develop their social and emotional development.

This will enhance their knowledge and understanding on things they will encounter later on in life and aid them in becoming resilient to various challenges they will face.

These skills will be essential because they all may not have the opportunity to acquire these skills in their home life and school gives them the opportunity to master these skills.
