Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

The three new wobble flexible chairs will make a significant difference by providing students with an outlet for their energy while allowing them to remain focused on learning. These chairs encourage movement, which helps stimulate the brain and improves concentration. My students are full of curiosity, creativity, and eagerness to learn. They thrive when given opportunities to move and interact in ways that suit their needs, making them an inspiring and dynamic group to teach. These chairs will empower them to succeed by giving them more freedom to explore how they learn best.
