Help me give my students seat sacks to help hold their books. We are changing to flexible seating arrangements with tables instead of desks. They will need these seat pockets to help hold some materials.

Celebrating 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
"Teach the children well and let them lead the way," this line is from Greatest Love of All, by Michael Masser and Linda Creed. And I firmly believe what the song says. In this day and age of technology, it is still vital that children have the opportunity to use technology on a regular basis. We need to teach children strong technological skills because they will, one day, lead the way in this technological age.
My students come from very diverse backgrounds.
They also have diverse ability levels. We are in a large school district that has been severely hit by budget cuts. We have very few supplies and there is definitely no money to be spent on "extras." My class is full of curious students who love to learn through hands-on lessons. They are bright and enjoy learning. They need exposure to lessons that cannot be taught using just the materials supplied by our district.
My Project
My students need these seat sacks to help hold some of their textbooks. We are moving to a flexible seating arrangement where they will be sitting at tables instead of desks. This will allow room for a big rug for the class to meet on. It will also facilitate group and partner work as they sit at flower shaped tables.
These seat sacks will make this flexible seating arrangement that is more conducive to learning possible!
Students will only have a couple of texts that need to be at their seats but the table has nowhere to store the books. These seat sacks will give the students a place to keep their books.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
