Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I teach at a low income school and my students attention span is short. 3rd graders require excitement and a change of scenery from time to time to be engaged. What better way than to allow them to have flexible seating in the classroom? With the items such as desk pockets, students that choose to sit in standard desks will have a place to place their items. The rug is for small group time in which I pull students for one on one instruction. Lastly, are the cushions! I think my students will love the convenience of taking a seat wherever they like in the classroom.
