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. Currently my students are limited in their choices when they come to my reading intervention classroom. Many of my students struggle to focus and need to wiggle or move, especially when learning to read! Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them.
My students have a need for movement as they learn.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The standing desk/table is adjustable and students can either sit or stand during our sessions.
I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional option to stand while learning will have a positive effect on their focus and learning.
