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

In today's classrooms students are dealing with BIG emotions and aren't always sure how to react and process them.

Picture books are a fantastic tool for teaching students how to process deal with big emotions.

This project will provide my classroom with multiple books that address several different Social-Emotional topics that students encounter. They will give students a chance to see and hear about how characters deal with these emotions. Students will then be able to have discussions in class about the books and how the lessons in them can be incorporated into their lives so that they may be successful human beings. Topics include: empathy, self motivation, self management, responsible decision making, self awareness and relationship skills.

The storage bins will be used to store the books according to topic and will leave room to add more books in the future.
