By reducing the spread of germs, we can minimize student absences and keep our classroom running smoothly. A healthier space means more time for learning together.\r\n\r\nThe breathing light and sensory liquid motion bubblers are already favorites in our calm-down corner. Students are using them to practice mindfulness and manage stress, which is especially important as they navigate both academic and personal challenges.\r\n\r\nThe Spanish affirmation cards and Spanish posters are powerful tools for our bilingual learners. They not only support language development but also build self-confidence and resilience. Students light up when they read an affirmation in Spanish which helps them feel seen and valued.\r\n\r\nFinally, the Spanish books are giving students opportunities to engage with reading in their home language, sparking curiosity and pride in their culture.\r\nAll of these resources are helping us create a classroom that is safe, supportive, and inspiring.

They created paper lanterns and origami decorations that symbolize prosperity and happiness, exchange red envelopes filled with chocolate coins to experience the joy of giving, and learn the stories behind these customs through engaging literature.\r\n\r\nThese experiences spark cultural curiosity, build appreciation for traditions around the world, and allow students to see how celebrations bring people together.

It has also strengthened their communication skills, giving them the opportunity to express themselves more effectively in both math and language.\r\n\r\nOur math lessons have become much more interactive and dynamic.
