My students need a horseshoe table and chairs to create a learning center.

Celebrating 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 Students
Some students were not made to sit still, and I encourage that. My students are in kindergarten and have some special needs. We are located in an urban area students all receive free breakfast and lunch.
Every day we start off with our breakfast in the classroom followed by our morning circle time.
My students love to look at the weather and to see who is here, then talk about their nights. We are building a strong classroom environment one day at a time.
My students are hands on interested learners with a lot of energy to learn in all different ways throughout the day.
My Project
Every student needs somewhere to sit in the classroom, that is their own. I like to do small group instruction at a horseshoe table since I can sit in the middle and be close to each student. The students have space to do their work and I'm right in front of them, no more leaning over their shoulders. Being able to be in front of the students allows me to monitor their work without being a disruption. Each student will get assigned a chair during their time at that center. This enable the students to create a routine and know exactly what my expectations of them are.
Students that know what the expectations are, can maneuver the routine to get to the fun part of learning easier.
I am looking forward to doing reading at the table where each student can see the book and work on a worksheet having to do with the book at the same time.
More than half of students from low‑income households
