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 students are extremely hard working. My fourth graders are enthusiastic learners who enjoy taking ownership of their own learning. They enjoy diving into a good book and finding comfortable places in the classroom to complete their work.

My class is filled with 17 students.

Each student has their own personality and enjoy engaging activities in the classroom. In our classroom, my students enjoy technology and the freedom of choice. My students are special to me and they make teaching fun!

My Project

Flexible seating allows my students to choose a spot in the room where they feel they can learn best. Wobble chairs, flex space balance balls, and flex space comfy floor seats would be a great addition to my classroom.

Flexible seating has a major impact on student achievement.

My students would be able to use these flexible seating options during independent practice. During this time, students will have choice in where they want to work. This allows students to take ownership in their learning and allows them to practice making good choices.

Flexible seating has shown positive results in the classroom. I have some flexible seating options in my classroom already; for instance, stools, clipboards, pillows, and a rug. Allowing the students to choose a comfortable place for them to learn is essential. I have noticed students are more engaged in their work and they are less disruptive in the classroom. The products I have chosen will allow the students to have additional seating options and allow them to make good decisions.
