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 Students

My school equips low-income students with the knowledge, skills, and strength of character needed to succeed in college and serve as leaders in their communities. We instill not only academic achievements but also values that will help them grow and thrive as they go to college and beyond.

Many of the students in my class are ELL (English Language Learners)--Spanish is the language that most of them speak at home.

There are also a range of learning needs in my classroom with a couple of IEPs (Individualized Education Programs). They are an excitable bunch and love to play and learn.

My Project

Kimochi (KEY.MO.CHEE) means “feeling” in Japanese.

Sometimes kids (and adults) have strong feelings that can fuel challenging behaviors.

Sometimes it’s hard to know how to communicate when you are in an emotional moment. Kimochis are a playful way to help children learn how to identify and express feelings. When kids can communicate their feelings effectively, they develop positive social skills that lead to lasting friendships and success in all aspects of life. Kimochis teach the fourth “R”—reading, writing, arithmetic, and RELATIONSHIPS. This “R” is the foundation for success in ALL areas of life.

“If your emotional abilities aren’t in hand, if you don’t have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage distressing emotions, if you can’t have empathy and have effective relationships, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far.” —Daniel Goleman, Emotional Intelligence
