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 Students

The students really love coming to school. Our school is a Title I school with 100% free breakfast and lunch, which means that our students come from low income families. They deal with a lot of stress at home and that stress most often comes with them when they enter the school building.

In my classroom, I focus on capturing the hearts of students by building meaningful relationships with each child.

Having a positive impact on our students is very important to every person who works at our school. We know that the stress that the kids bring with them from home can greatly impact how they learn. Teachers and staff strive each and every day to make sure that we speak to students in the hallways, we shake their hands as they enter the classrooms, we sit and talk with students at lunch, and we play with them at recess. We understand that our students come first. We understand that in order for us to be able to teach them, they have to feel safe and loved by the people around them. Each teacher at my school genuinely loves teaching!

My Project

I have been blessed with so many loving students in my classroom each year! In my classroom I try to make learning fun and engaging. Before Covid, I was dreaming of how to incorporate more flexible seating into my classroom. Because of Covid I am a little more limited, but I tried to be very thoughtful in the types of seating that I chose. I chose seating that can be sprayed and wiped down and be cleaned.

I want to offer my students a variety of different places to sit so that they can be more engaged in the lessons and material they should be learning.

These different options will make it easier for some of my more energetic students to stay focused on their daily task, as well as allow them some flexibility of where they can sit throughout the classroom.
