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

The tools in this project will help students to calm themselves down and keep them in class.

Many students are overstimulated by noise and these headphones will help allow them to focus and relax in the busy school environment.

The fidget toys will be utilized in the calm down corner to help students stay in the classroom, regroup, and then return to learning.

Students will also use these tools to learn the valuable skill of tying their own shoes. It will give them more confidence as they are able to do this task for themselves. It will also save my back!
