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

My students are eager to learn and grow in my classroom, but many have difficulty staying engaged while seated at traditional desks all day. Research shows that flexible seating options can improve focus, increase motivation, and promote physical health. That's why I'm requesting a Wobble Chair and Chair Seat Cushion.

These materials will help provide my students with the freedom to move and find new comfortable learning positions, making it easier to stay focused on their tasks!

My classroom is a community of bright, energetic young learners who are curious about the world and eager to explore. However, some of my students need different seating options to concentrate and feel comfortable for amazing learning to take place.

A wobble chair would provide a safe way for active students to move while working, and a seat cushion would allow students to sit around the room for group activities or individual work, creating a dynamic, inclusive learning environment.

With your help, we can bring a wobble chair and seat c - into our classroom. The wobble chair will serve students who benefit from movement to stay engaged, while the lap desks will allow for flexible seating arrangements. These items will support focus, independence, and comfort, enhancing our classroom's learning experience and empowering each student to succeed.

Thank you for supporting my students by knocking down the barrier to resources that are necessary for their success.

I very much appreciate your consideration in this matter and sincerely hope you will view my request favorably and provide the requisite funds
