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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The counseling office sees students daily. We have multiple students on IEPs and 504 plans and others that come when a crisis arises. It is very important that the counseling space is welcoming and friendly.

Upgrading the space with new materials such as games, sensory items, and wall decals will help my students be able to work on their needs in the counseling space.

We will use the games to help with conflict resolution skills, sharing, and turn-taking. Sensory items will be used when a student has big feelings. My students love dogs and the life-size dogs would be the perfect edition especially when they are going through trauma or experiencing difficult feelings.

As I get new students every day, I want to make the space somewhere students will want to come and where they can get what they need!

Ms. Gagne
Grades 3-5
