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
Hi! I am the teacher of a class full of 30 bright and independent third grade scholars! The scholars in my class come from the inner city of Chicago, and most receive free or reduced-price lunch. Our charter school serves scholars in grades K-6 and provides the academic foundation to earn a college degree. With this in mind, scholars are pushed to their limits and given rigorous academic work and feedback to prepare them for success. We are a Level 1 plus school and pride ourselves on having high standards and expectations for our scholars!
To break the cycle of poverty, college readiness is crucial.
These scholars are exposed to many things at such a young age. Coming from such low income backgrounds, these children are denied crucial necessities like technology. Communicating with the outside world in this day and age is something these children need to experience. Through technology, my scholars will be able to communicate, conduct research, and see the world in a whole new way!
My Project
My classroom was recently funded and supplied with bean bag chair covers and tablets! The bean bags chairs are meant for my scholars who need flexible seating arrangements. These bean bags chairs will help my scholars who fidget in their chairs focus and learn.
Flexible seating is a crucial part of a successful learning environment!
Flexible seating is something I have always wanted to implement in my classrooms, and it is nice to finally start making that dream come true! The tablet stands will also help those students who are sitting in various parts of the room keep their tablets upright while they are hard at work.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
