My Students
The school in which I teach has a very diverse background. There is a high refugee population near the school, and we are an ELL magnet. This means we have kids that speak 18 different languages and come from all sorts of economic backgrounds.
There are seven different languages spoken in my class alone!
The kids in my class are not only adjusting to first grade but a lot of times our country as well. I do my best to accommodate all the learning styles in my classroom. There are students who don't speak English, kids that have a tough time focusing for a multitude of reasons, kids that are extraordinary helpers and learners, kids that have home lives that make me envious, and kids that have home lives I wouldn't wish for them.
Overall, the students in my class are absolutely amazing! These kids have so much grit and try their best at everything they do. They are amazing learners and the kindest group of kiddos!
My Project
My classroom uses a flexible seating model. As an adult, sometimes I work from my desk, my couch, my counter, or the floor. I like to give the students in my class that same freedom. When students want to stand, they go to the standing table. When students want to sit comfortably, they sit on our lazy boy. I want to give students a comfortable place to sit while working on the floor. These pillows will accomplish that goal. Students can use them to work comfortably while using a lap desk or our seated floor table.
More than half of 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
