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 will significantly enhance my students love for reading by allowing them to choose any spot in the classroom to read. Desk can sometimes can be uncomfortable specially for students that need movement or non traditional learning environments.

The primary goal of this project is to create an inclusive and dynamic classroom environment where all students can enjoy a comfortable reading spot.

My students are incredibly diverse, each bringing their unique strengths, challenges, and perspectives to the classroom. They are resilient, creative and eager to meet their reading goals.

Mrs. Valdez
Grades 3-5
