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

Flexible seating can greatly benefit special education students by providing an environment that supports their diverse learning needs. Many students in special education have unique sensory, emotional, or physical needs that can be addressed through seating options that allow them to choose what works best for them. By offering a variety of seating arrangements—such as standing desks, floor cushions, bean bags, or traditional chairs—students can select the one that helps them focus, feel comfortable, and engage in the learning process. This autonomy can reduce anxiety and improve attention, which is particularly important for students with sensory processing challenges or ADHD, as it allows them to regulate their bodies and sensory input while learning.

Additionally, flexible seating encourages collaboration and communication, essential skills for students with special needs.

By having the freedom to move around and interact with their peers in different seating arrangements, students can build social skills in a more relaxed and supportive environment. This setup fosters a sense of inclusion and belonging, helping students to feel more comfortable and confident in their learning space. Overall, flexible seating creates a personalized classroom atmosphere that caters to the individual needs of students, enhancing both their academic and social development.
