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 Students

My students are enthusiastic, energetic, and creative third graders. They love coming to school. This year, they have really embraced a growth mindset attitude and really enjoy learning new things.

My third graders bring a variety of learning styles to our classroom.

We value each other's needs for learning. Student interaction is a big component of our day. As a result of that, at most times of the day, you will see students working together at tables and all around the floor.

My Project

Third graders like to move! Some students like sitting in traditional chairs and tables; others like sitting on the floor. The items I've chosen will help my students be able to focus and work longer as they build their stamina for longer periods of learning.

Alternative seating choices are important for many learners.

Not everyone learns the same way. Comfortable floor seating with a back to add body support will keep many students more engaged in their work. Wobbly stools will help others "move" while working without distracting others.

They will be so excited to learn in ways that fit their needs.
