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

As a School Psychologist, I see students regularly for counseling, as well as pop-in sessions when they are having a hard day, need to talk, or just need a break from their day.

I am seeking materials to support my students social and emotional development, and which they can utilize during counseling sessions.

I have included curriculum, short stories, calming tools, and fidgets (and storage baskets) to help my students regulate their emotions during tough moments, and to practice strategies during our therapy sessions.

Thank you so much for your support!

Ms. Taryn
Grades 3-5
