Celebrating 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.
I teach students with learning disabilities in the area of reading and writing. Many of my students also have ADHD or an emotional disability which impacts them in the general education classroom. They struggle to learn and behave in the classroom, which requires them to be in a resource classroom.
Creating a classroom environment with flexible seating will help provide for the needs of all students.
For students that need to wiggle or move will get an opportunity to move without disrupting others. Students that feel the need to stand will have the opportunity to move to tall desks to work. Giving students the opportunity to move in a class period can cut down the amount of negative behaviors that can occur with student who are seeking opportunities to move.
Many of my students are reading several grade levels below 7th and 8th grade. They struggle to find books that are interesting and that are at their levels. I would love to create a classroom library full of newer books that are about topics they want to learn more about, or full of books that are similar to the ones that their general education classmates are reading.
My Project
This project will be providing my students with books that are high interest and at their reading level. This is important for my students to feel success in the area of reading. Many of the books have adapted to be lower reading levels but are the same content that their general education friends are reading.
Providing my student an environment that is welcoming and comfortable for all learning types, gives more students the opportunity to learn and grow.
The books and the new furniture, such as wobble cushions, balance balls, and beanbag seats, for my classroom will give my students the opportunity for them to move and learn as they feel they need.
