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

I love that my students have the ability to express their feelings openly. It’s wonderful to see them recognize and vocalize their emotions, and I believe this is a crucial part of their growth. These resources will be invaluable in supporting them during moments when they feel restless or fidgety but are determined to stay focused and learn. Additionally, the tools will help them manage their emotions and provide a healthy outlet for expressing strong feelings, encouraging appropriate responses, and fostering emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is key in creating lifelong support for individuals as they encounter so many changes throughout their lives.
