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 come from a demographic area that is rural, comprised of a low socioeconomic class. They attend a school where 89% of the students have free or reduced lunch. However, despite their hardships, they have the drive to succeed in their education.In addition, despite their economic background, these students strive to become productive, articulate, and responsible citizens. My students are developing as intrinsically motivated and independent learners. They come from a school where the staff is dedicated to working collaboratively as a professional learning community to ensure that all students receive an education that reflects data-driven decisions, current curriculum, and researched-based practices.

My Project

Students will love using the wobble chair, active chair, and balance ball in the classroom as they learn throughout the day. Students will be happier, healthier, and have a better engagement in the different activities.

Physical activity will improve their academic performance.

Kids, as well as adults, can't sit still for eight hours straight, so why should we make students! The world outside our classroom is dynamic, fast-paced, and ever-changing world full of choices. So, I believe I should provide the same thing in my classroom. I need to provide them with choices on where to sit or stand, and this simply cannot be done when kids are sitting in rows of desks all day.
