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

Self-regulation can be described as the ability to understand and manage your own behavior and reactions. Self-regulation is taught with in-class strategies to help children identify what they are feeling and how to respond in positive ways to help themselves. Self-regulation can also be achieved when we change our environment. The calming room at P.S. 32 will help students take a break in an area that will promote self-organization and sensory integration. The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students will contribute to the on-going creation of this Zen oasis. The carpets and cloud decor will all contribute to sensory exploration and an overall relaxing experience.
