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

Our classroom is full of books, different types of technology, flexible seating, and music. Students are able to switch seats and complete their work all over the classroom, wherever and however they are most successful.

My students are a great group of students who love to move, create, learn, ask questions, and occasionally make a mess in the classroom.

I am lucky enough to have two classes of 4th graders for science. Whenever we have a lab to complete in class, you can sense the excitement from everybody, including myself.

My Project

My fourth graders love having a variety of seating options in the classroom. As we transition into less desks and more collaborative workspaces, we need some help with where to store personal items in storage carts. Some of our small group stools are on their last leg and need to be replaced. I am asking for two Standing Desks, four 6-Drawer Storage Carts, and a pack of five Stack Stools.

Whether it is sitting around the coffee table, balancing on a yoga ball, or sitting on a wobble stool, my kiddos do best when they can choose what works best for them.

My students have loved using computers at our standing computer table and thought that a couple of standing desks would be a great option for our classroom.
