Celebrating 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 live in a low socioeconomic and often rough area of Los Angeles. Although they do not live in the best of neighborhoods, I strive to give them the best education for a brighter future.
My students are 24 energetic, inquisitive, smart 5-6-year-old students from diverse backgrounds in the dual language program.
They consist of 50% English Language Learners with a Latino background and 50% English only students with Latino and African American backgrounds. I love that my students are diverse in their backgrounds and in their Spanish abilities. They are able to learn from each other as they begin their journey into bi-literacy and bilingualism.
My Project
These stools will mainly be used with our kidney table for small group instruction. I love that they don't take up too much space and can easily tuck under the table for storage when not in use. The stools will give my students a opportunity to move around as needed to get their wiggles out. It's also a new type of seating that they currently don't have available in the classroom.
These stools will also be great for flexible seating.
If I am not using them during small group instruction, students can use them during the school day for doing their classwork at their desk. It's nice that for them to have that choice.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
