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

The quiet corner will help us calm and regulate our feelings and emotions. We will use it daily for our emotions and difficult moments of the day. It will allow us to easily integrate into daily activities and routines, helping us make learning more effective and fluid. However, I need your whole heart and support to make it a reality. Together we can achieve it. I will be grateful and happy, and my students will be happy, excited, and grateful to have a quiet corner for their emotions. Because emotions matter. Thank you so much, Flamingo Class.
