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

I've wanted to create a safe space for my students where they can deal with their emotions. A Mindfulness Corner or calming corner can be a comfortable place within the classroom that can give them a moment to reflect and compose themselves.

This calming corner is needed for students so they can learn to deal with their emotions and feelings in a healthy way.

I teach teenagers and many of them struggle with social and emotional issues so much so that they cannot focus on their studies. As much as I want, I can't fix all their problems, but I can give them a break when they need it. This little corner will be a safe place for them to process their emotions if they need it.

I'm asking for a chair, small table, and a floor lamp to create their calming corner.
