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

This will be my first year in my own office/classroom and these items including the storage unit, carpet and classroom activity kit will allow me to create beneficial environment for the students. The items requested will make a positive impact in the lives of our students as they are given the opportunity to take the time to examine, learn, process and explore their social, emotional and behavioral selves.

My hope for this project is to cultivate a therapeutic atmosphere for my students in order that they may successfully reach their social-emotional goals at school, home and in their community.

These items will allow my students to use a variety of different mediums including games, reading, and arts and crafts to achieve these goals.
