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

I’m a third grade teacher who is looking to get my students flexible seating. We don’t love being seated all the time and expect children to stay sitting at the carpet or desks. The chairs aren’t the best and students deserve to choose their seating to help focus their learning. With flexible seating like stools and ball seats, they can have access to a variety of seats making learning more comfortable.

I listed other supplies we are running out of as well that are needed in our classroom, like paint brushes, dry erase markers, and Clorox wipes.

Thank you for your help, and I appreciate all the donations.
