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 Project

I love that my students enjoy coming to the carpet. Due to us having mini lessons and reading to kids on the carpet they tend to move a lot. I think that having seating wiggle pads will allow the students to feel comfortable. The students will also be able to rock on their pads. For example, I plan to use the requested materials by having them get their seating pad when they come to the carpet so that they can be comfortable while sitting following carpet rules on it. They will be able to still participate in activities on the carpet, think-pair-share, and group talks.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
