Help me give my students a class set of flexible seating, engaging books, laminating pouches, and a few more items to start our school year with a bang!
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
Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work.
The items that I have in my project would give my students the opportunity to have a fun and engaging school year. I want to give my students the opportunity to be more involved in their education journey.
More than half of students from low‑income households
