Help me give my students a sense of calmness and relaxation as we gather and sit, forming a trust circle during sharing time!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Guillen's classroom raised $296
This project is fully funded
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 Students
I teach a caring, insightful group of 24 students who are dedicated and super excited to be back in-person learning in their classroom. Of my twenty-four students, thirteen are English Learners, ranging from Newcomer English Learners to students who are now considered Long Term English Learners, having been in the EL program for five years or over. Three of my students receive Resource Specialist Services support for English Language Developing and math skills, and two students are attending IDEC. My students are predominantly of Latino background.
My Project
Please help me provide my very hard-working students with a comfortable sitting area when forming Trust Circles during sharing time! Our seating rug is not large enough to accommodate all of my students and often we need to sit right on the floor tiles. Having these linking mats will provide my students with a comfortable mat as they share their ideas, listen to stories during the read-aloud time, and share their feelings as we use check-ins to monitor their emotional well-being. The squeezable, cuddly toys/friends will provide a sense of calmness and relaxation as they would use their voices to share their thoughts.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
