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 4th/5th graders are scholars in a low-socioeconomic community in Los Angeles county who live in poverty and get free and reduced lunch. They are devoted English Language Learners who are working very hard in order to access grade level content and become professionals in the future. They are Ell's that are proud to maintain their Spanish at home and are working hard to learn academic English. They're full of energy and need many opportunities to move around and choose partners with whom to collaborate with.

My Project

I am requesting different seating options so that my scholars can be relaxed. The seating choices will allow them to be comfortable and motivated. This can be done quickly by choosing a new seat that's low to the ground, on a bean bag, a tall stool, or just standing. My scholars need different seating choices in order to be engaged, burn calories, and have a better oxygen flow to the brain. Flexible seating is fun! It also promotes: collaboration-easily pair-up; community-share space and supplies; movement-burn energy; choice-choose where they work and with whom; and sensory input-stimulates students sense of touch.
