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.
I work with kindergarten students in a Title I school. The majority of my students qualify to receive free or reduced-price lunch. It is a small school with about 550 students. The students attend full-day kindergarten.
I love teaching kindergarten because the kids are so eager to learn.
They are like little sponges, soaking up all the information. With budgets being cut every year, I need to look elsewhere to get the resources my students need.
DonorsChoose.org has been a great place for me to get the things that I need for my classroom.
My Project
I have spent the beginning of my summer reading and watching all about flexible seating in the classroom. I am very excited to start flexible seating in my classroom for the upcoming school year. Flexible seating is where you get rid of the traditional seating and put in place more comfortable places for them to work. The students will get to choose each day where they want to sit so they can do their best work for the day. I will keep some traditional seating in my classroom for those who like that better. For this project I am asking for a unique shaped table that the students can work and collaborate with each other.
