Help me give my students an engaging student-centered learning environment for an ICT classroom. Research states that parallel teaching is an effective approach to supporting students with disabilities and multilingual leaners.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Simon's classroom raised $395

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 Project
Students with disabilities and multilingual learners deserve to access grade-appropriate instruction in a welcoming learning environment. Lap desks and comfy seating are some of the pillars that will drive successful parallel teaching in an integrated co-teaching classroom.
Coming from the South Bronx, my 3rd-grade students are inquisitive and rise above their circumstances.
They are always eager to learn every day despite any challenges they face.
Currently, my students do not have anywhere to sit comfortably when I employ parallel teaching methods in my classroom. With the completion of this project, I will use the carpet, lap desks, and floor pillows for parallel instruction.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
