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 have been teaching for seven years and I have noticed that the students who are given the option to choose where to sit are the most engaged and ready to learn.

Imagine having to sit in a hard, plastic chair for over six hours a day.

Students need an alternative seat choice other than the uncomfortable chairs that are in the classroom. The flexible seating such as the wobble chairs, balance balls, and floor cushions, will help my students reach their highest potential by helping them remain focused throughout their day. Giving students the tools they need to learn can change the world!
