Help me give my students the tools needed to take control of their anxiety.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cruz's classroom raised $238
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 Project
Learning a second language has a lot of challenges. There are a lot of new words to learn and words to pronounce. There is a culture to absorb that has not been experienced before. But when your teens are not in the proper headspace, the most exciting lessons won't make a dent.
A calming area with the right tools helps bring the student back to a good place.
With the the anxiety relief plush, the weighted pillow, and the anxiety sensor stickers and rings, students will have a chance to breathe and get back into the headspace they rather be in. That is every teacher's goal.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
