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

My students have various emotional and social needs. The items chosen, including the carpets and STEM kits, will help provide a sensory area to self-regulate and educational items to provide engaging hands-on opportunities when they need a break from traditional learning. School closures impacted my students by taking classroom routines and structure away. They are re-learning appropriate behaviors and social skills in a school setting. We are learning to follow routines, express ourselves appropriately, self-regulate, and transition back into a general classroom setting. This classroom lacks many things and we would appreciate any help.
