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.
I teach two classrooms of 21 students each. My second graders are in the Dual Immersion program and work hard every day to learn another language (in this case Spanish) and advance their academics at the same time. They are incredible and enthusiastic about learning.
My students come to school happy and eager to grow.
About half are English learners, with the other half being Spanish learners. I have a few students who need resource services.
Half of my students spend half of their day in my class learning Spanish, then they go over to their English teacher for the second half of the day. The students who start in her classroom with English come over the second half of the day for Spanish. We share and love our second graders. They get double the love each day.
My Project
A lot of my students come from hard backgrounds and their little brains are used to cortisol. With the items I requested, I would like to create an environment that creates endorphins, where they can enjoy learning. Where even the way they are called back is inviting and stress free. The mood lamp will help in a state that is in winter most of the year. The air freshener is meant to have their sense of smell bring them joy. The stress relief toys are for our calm down zone where they can go and take five minutes to have a brain break.
