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 Students

My students are hard working and optimistic about the future. Our school strives to promote and cultivate a college-ready mindset in every student because only a quarter of of my students report having a family member attend college.

If you ask my students what motivates them to succeed, they would talk about their family.

Despite facing many challenges, my students come to school ready to learn and be their best in order to make themselves, their family, and their community proud. Every day I am humbled that I get to be their teacher because they recognize the power of education.

My Project

Desks should meet the needs of students! These sit/stand desks will help my students in many ways. First, standing for one of their periods will be good for their posture, energy, and attention. Second, this will ensure that all students can see; it can be difficult for students in the back to see the board.

Having a desk that allows more movement for students increases engagement.

This is especially true for active students, and this is one way in which I can better meet the needs of all my students. I want to make sure that the learning environment is inviting to all!
