Comfortable Seating for Social Emotional Learning and Collaborations

Help me give my students more flex space items for their own space for learning. I hope to create a space using the carpet and seating for students to learn in a comfortable environment to learn in.

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

Aloha

I work with some of the most unique and caring students that I ever had the pleasure to work with.

They have been through a lot with Covid 19 and always try to come in with a smile and try their hardest. I want to create an area in my classroom where students will feel safe to be comfortable so that they can learn. I have started to create that space but still need help with some more items. Alternative seating will help keep students engaged and comfortable while learning. I want that in my classroom. Research has said that having alternative seating leads to students being more engaged, promote and collaboration. Help me give this to them.
