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.
Math is a subject students either love or hate. My goal is to build relationships with my students and then get them to slowly realize that we are all in this together. It is not one teacher and 25 students, it is 26 teachers.
The power of having the right tools helps students feel comfortable and ready to work.
All people have strengths and weaknesses. Students just need to realize we are all here to learn and improve together. My goal is to build relationships with my students and help them reach their full potential.
My Project
In this project, I am asking for 2 adjustable tables and calculators to store on them. Some students just can't sit for 45-60 minute periods and become disengaged, fidgety and off task when they are uncomfortable. This leads to a lack of understanding, work completion and ultimately lower grades.
During the class, if a student feels like they need to stand, these tables will give up to 6 students the ability to stand in the room, without distracting others, and stay engaged in the lessons.
I am hoping that the flexible seating options will eliminate one barrier to some students not succeeding in my room. My students currently sit in groups and have calculators at their tables. The 5 calculators will be left on these table as a tool if students need them.
