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

I have an amazing group of 23 5th graders. My students come to school with open hearts and open minds every day. They show me and each other an abundance of love, and they deserve the best learning environment possible. A handful of my students struggle with sitting still, which can greatly affect their ability to focus and learn. I want these wobble stools to provide these students with seating that will help them to move around in a controlled setting.

My goal is for these students to have a more comfortable option for seating that will help to increase their focus and therefore increase their learning in our classroom!
