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
My students are creative, inquisitive, and full of life! They each have amazing personalities and show great interest in learning everyday. I am a resource teacher and my students have special needs that require little extra help to make them shine bright. Although they face a variety of challenges, they continue to come back to school smiling and eager to learn.
It is my pleasure to serve my students and give them the tools needed to be successful.
My school is Title One, meaning families cannot always support the school or the teachers as much as they want to. My students have challenges that they face, both at home and at school and I want my students to know that I will do everything in my power to help them achieve their goals.
My students are special in many ways, and I know that with your help they will be able to overcome the challenges they face in order to reach for the stars and achieve their goals!
My Project
Alternative seating is going to hugely benefit the students in my resource room. It allows the students to choose where and how they'd like to do their work. Giving them choices such as bean bag chairs, seat cushions, laying on a rug with pillows or balance balls will allow them to be in control of their environment and allows them to succeed at their academics. Having the different textures and seating positions gets their bodies ready to activate their brains. Having flexible seating options is also important so the students can meet their sensory needs.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
