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

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them seating options to make more effective collaboration choices. The student desks are adjustable and will allow students to sit at desk/higher tables but will still allow some movement. Two student desks will allow my students to work in pairs and collaborate among each other to further critical thinking. They are lightweight and can be easily moved around the classroom.

I have seen how my choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional furniture will help them grow.
