Collaboration and Books in Spanish!

Help me give my students opportunities to collaborate and read in Spanish. I have students who are learning English as a new language and our library needs books in Spanish.

My Project

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently, my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clipboards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. That is what the yoga mats and lap desks are for. We also need to add books in Spanish to our library.

My students are noticeably more engaged in their reading and writing when they are given a choice of where to work and books they love to read.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options and books they can read.

I have seen how the choice of seating and texts can positively affect my students' work and I hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
