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
I have a lot of hard working students who come from poverty but who are striving to become good leaders in our community. They work hard so they can achieve a better life than what they've been given.
They love to come to school and try their best from the time they walk into to the door until the time they leave.
Our Mission statement sums up everything about my students: I will act in such a way that I will be proud of myself, and others will be proud of me, too. I came to school to learn. I will learn. I will have a great day. It's up to me.
My Project
Students learn best when they have some control over their environment. By having more flexible seating options in my classroom it will allow my students more opportunities to choose where they want to work . It will also allow them to change their location and position as needed.
Having alternative seating will help keep the students engaged.
By having higher engagement, students will be more prosperous. This also helps reduce the amount of behavior problems that can happen in the classroom. I want all of my students to feel like they are in charge of their education. I want to them feel and be successful in my classroom. I believe that by giving them more flexible seating choices I am setting my students up for success.
