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

Students learn in many different ways. Taking care of their physical needs is essential when asking them to absorb information and apply it to every day life. Many students have difficulties focusing in the classroom. Studies have shown that students who move often have success in learning because of their left brain right brain constant activation patterns. A flex seating classroom will improve focus for students, specifically those who are neurodivergent, hyposensitive and/or hypersensitive. Help me provide a successful environment for my students by providing different seating options in their classroom.
