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
The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you. My students have more tough times in their daily life than we can imagine. I want to make school their safe haven where they can be themselves and love to learn. I need your help in making our classroom ready to make kids want to be there and access knowledge to the best of our ability. More books and flexible seating is my goal to create a classroom environment where kids can have fun with their learning. Many thanks to you!
My Project
These books will encourage students to want to listen to books more as well as love their own classroom library. With these books, our class will have more of a differentiated library to meet diverse needs. The chapter books will be part of our daily read aloud. As a beginning teacher, my classroom library is small and I would love for more options for students. I want to be able to select chapter books that we can read each day and discuss them. During this time, I want students to want to hear more and be involved in the discussions around it. I believe having "popular" chapter books will engage them further. Flexible seating encourages students to work hard and learn lots. Having a variety of seating like wobble cushions and balance ball seats engages their minds and helps get those "wiggles" out. I want to enhance focus and motivation all throughout our classroom. My vision is to use these seating options as an incentive for students who are working hard and trying their best. I have done something similar before but with limited options. My students respond really well to having options to chose from.
