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 Students

Our students are amazing. They are active and eager to learn. They are curious about everything, whether it be a new word or a rogue cricket that happens to wander into our classrooms. Our students are bright, resourceful, and full of imagination.

We have the most amazing students around!

Our school is in a very high-poverty area where 100% of the students receive free lunch. Though our students do not have many resources at home, they come to school happy and excited to start the day. They are truly inspirational.

My Project

My students are your typical second and third graders. They love to wiggle and move. During reading and writing time, my students ask me if they can stand, move to the floor or move to a different seat so that they can concentrate better. Staying still at their seats is difficult for prolonged periods of time.

The Flex-Space Comfy Floor Seats will provide comfortable places for my students to read independently.

Unlike the hard classroom chairs or the thin rug on the floor, these seats allow students to have a soft place to sit. This improves not only their concentration but also makes reading more fun.
