Creating an Inclusive Classroom Environment With Hands-On Learning!

Help me give my students choices with flexible seating stools that will allow them to wiggle away. The math manipulatives will allow them for hands-on learning that ALL kids benefit from.

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 Project

I want my students to have autonomy and take charge of their own learning. With the flexible seating I have requested, they will be able to have choices on what to sit on. Students highly benefit from a classroom that is inclusive and flexible seating will allow for this. Students are all unique individuals who come with different needs and I want them to have what they need in order to succeed. The math manipulatives will also allow for my classroom to be an inclusive environment. ALL students benefit from hands-on-learning. Having visuals and tactile items will allow my students to really understand the math lessons in a deeper level.

This will be my first year teaching and I am extremely excited to help shape the minds of 20 students.

I will be a bilingual first grade teacher where I will teach in mostly in Spanish. I cannot wait to provide my students a safe, warm, and inviting classroom environment where they can be themselves and be proud of their heritage!
