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
Here at BTWSHS, we are dedicated to fostering a dynamic and inclusive learning environment where every student can thrive. One of the cornerstones of our approach is differentiated instruction, which allows us to tailor teaching methods to meet the diverse needs of our students. Currently, my small group instruction area lacks the flexibility needed to accommodate the various learning styles and preferences of our student body.
I would like to upgrade my small group area by introducing flexible seating.
Flexible seating will empower my students to choose seating that best supports their learning needs. My goal is to create a more comfortable and engaging space that enhances concentration and participation during small group instruction sessions. By introducing these stool and mat for flexible seating, I seek to provide a conducive environment where my students can focus on learning without the distractions of discomfort or rigid seating arrangements.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
