Celebrating 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
I hope to build a calming corner for my students. Many of my students suffer from anxiety and stress. The need to juggle school work and personal life can often become overwhelming for kids in my community. With this project,I hope to provide some relief. the goal of the calming corner is to build a safe place in my classroom for students to learn how to process their emotions, relax, and read a good book.
I hope to provide a safe space for students in the classroom to escape when they need it.
The rug, bean bag, lamps, and pillows will give students the ambiance and ability to de-escalate in times of stress. These tools will help students improve socio-emotional skills to be resilient, calm, and successful.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
