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 2nd graders come to school every day knowing that they are in a classroom where they matter, they are cared for, and that if they put their best foot forward they can achieve anything!

I teach at a Title I school in Arizona where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Many of my students come from homes with factors I would never imagine that a child would have to face, yet they strive for academic excellence each and every day!

In our class, real-world applications and experiences are top priorities. Mastering the standards is one thing but applying them as life skills is the top goal for success. Setting personal and class goals to achieve academic and personal success is a way of life. Knowing that mastery does not happen quickly and that mistakes only make us stronger are affirmations that my class lives by.

Strong relationships are built so that learning academically and social emotionally can help them grow to be the best that they can be. They carry these lessons with them so that not only are they achieving excellence in my classroom but taking those skills into any future classroom or situation.

My Project

How long can you sit still while listening and learning? It is difficult and we expect 8-year-olds to do this. NOT! In my classroom, I understand the needs of children and want them to feel that it is OK to move while you learn. The no-roll bouncy ball and bounce bands to support healthy wiggling during learning. Every child is unique and I want to give them every opportunity to be successful emotionally and academically. Walk into my classroom and see student success through flexible seating to meet all needs throughout the learning day. Positive movement helps what you hear and see. In my classroom, it will be observed how flexible seating will improve learning by increasing focus.
