This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
Many of my students see school as a safe place where learning and community take center stage, when so often that isn't the case in their everyday lives. My students come to school everyday ready and eager to learn. The students in my school are diverse in many different ways. From socioeconomic status, culture, and even learning styles and abilities, my students are well versed in every way. As a teacher I find it a privilege to be able to work with such a unique group of children.
My Project
Students learn most efficiently when they are able to focus on the task at hand. Many of my students have very busy minds and very busy bodies! These seating options will give my students the ability to move about comfortably and focus more on math stations. Currently, my students have wobble stools and cushions, but these new additions to our classroom will give my students even more options for learning. More specifically, the floor seat options (rug and floor cushions) will give my most active students the ability to work comfortably on the floor rather than be constrained to a desk!
