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
My students work most successfully when they can spread out around the classroom. Due to their different learning styles and needs, flexible seating has significantly improved their ability to focus and work comfortably.
As we use more and more floor options for seating in my classroom, my students need comfortable floor seats to help their developing spines.
While they love to work around the room, they sometimes cannot stay in their chosen spot for too long because the floor is harsh and cold in the morning. These floor seats will substantially impact helping them learn in the way that suits them best.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
