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

Flexible seating can make a huge difference in how engaged and comfortable students feel, and with everything going on, clean air is a must-have for keeping everyone safe and focused.

Motivating students and making sure they are comfortable is CRUCIAL, especially with 6th graders!

Flexible seating is awesome because it lets kids choose where they feel most comfortable learning, which can be on a wobble stool or a yoga ball chair. This choice can help them focus better, be more engaged, and feel a sense of control over their learning environment. It's all about creating spaces that support different learning styles and needs.

An air purifier can help reduce germs and allergens, making sure everyone can breathe easier. This is especially crucial for kids with allergies or asthma – it means they can concentrate on learning without worrying about the air they're breathing.

I am asking for any donations to help make this happen. Every little bit helps me get closer to giving my students a flexible, healthy learning space. Your support would mean the world to me and my students and make a real difference in their learning experience.
