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

We are a small school with a diverse population. We have students who come from households with a laptop for everyone in the home, and we have those who don't have access to a laptop or the internet.

My fifth graders are creative, bright, innovative, and technology-driven 21st-century thinkers who love learning new concepts every day.

My students are very enthusiastic about learning, love coming to school, are problem solvers, and always come to school eager to tackle new and challenging projects. My students thrive on creative projects that require higher-level thinking skills and cooperative learning.

My Project

My 5th graders are full of energy and eagerness to learn. However, with all of that energy, they have a need for flexible seating options. Sitting in a cold plastic chair all day makes it difficult for many of my students to focus on learning.

This couch will provide a flexible seating option when students are tired of sitting in a chair and just need to have a comfortable place to focus.

This couch can accommodate 2 students if they want to work as partners and collaborate on a project. Providing my students with seating options will ensure that all students needs are met.
