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

My classroom is full of energetic first graders. I encourage a lot of movement in the classroom because nobody likes to sit still. I like to empower my students to have choice in everything they do.

My students love learning, but often times struggle to stay focused.

We are a Title I school with over 74% of free and reduced lunches. The families we serve really want what is best for their kids and trust me as their teacher to help make those decisions. The students in my classroom are very loving and caring individuals. I want to foster the love and care of school. I also want to empower my students so they can be successful in the decisions they make on a daily basis.

My Project

My students need three wobble chairs, to create alternative seating options to ensure their success in the classroom. By having alternative seating in the classroom, students are free to make a choice of which seating arrangement is best for their learning. By giving them a choice, I am helping them begin to learn how to make appropriate choices to make them more successful in the classroom. This also helps reduce the amount of behavior problems that can happen in the classroom. By having alternative seating students have their own space to spread out and have room to work. Having alternative seating also helps with engagement. By having higher engagement students will be more successful.

By donating you will help the learning environment of our classroom by giving my students more choice.
