Celebrating 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
Student stress and anxiety has been on the rise in the last couple years. Prolonged student anxienty leads to increased stress on the body, prohibits the executive functioning skills in and damges brain function. Mindful coloring calms the brain and helps your body to relax. It can improve sleep and fatigue while decreasing heart rate and feelings of depression and anxiety.
Since the Lahaina wildfires, my students have experienced trauma and tragedy in their families, homes, and community as whole.
Now that they are back in school, my hope is that through this mindful coloring project the students will be able to help manage their anxiety around school and community. When we are finished with the inspirational posters, the plan is to hang them around the school to provide inspirtation and beauty campus wide.
More than half of students from low‑income households
