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

Help me give my students floor seats for flexibility in seating choice and a way to access literature and language more effectively. Learners thrive with flexibility in seating in their classroom, my learners love it when they are able to find a way to work away from their desks. I have learned that calming strips help social emotional needs become more balanced as they allow learners to use mindfulness in their daily routines.

Headphones allow students to utilize their technology to further their literacy and language skills by allowing them to access the content.

Thank you for helping us gain resources we need so we can better serve our future leaders.
