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

Research shows that classroom environments significantly impact a child’s ability to learn and feel secure. Soft pastel tones such as light blues, gentle greens, blush pinks, and creamy neutrals help reduce anxiety, minimize distractions, and create a soothing atmosphere. These colors are especially effective for young children who are still learning how to manage their emotions and attention.

By calming the visual noise in the classroom, I will be able to create a more focused, nurturing environment where students can thrive.

A more serene space helps children stay engaged during lessons, feel more at ease during transitions, and build the emotional resilience they need to succeed in school and life.
