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

My students have a love of learning and get really invested in their work. Some of my students like to stand while working or need some sort of movement while doing their work. Movement while working improves their work tremendously!

The flexible seating will help students be more alert and focused while learning!

Movement will actually distract students less. Flexible seating is very student centered and will help my students collaborate with each other better.

These special seats will help students during writing, math, and independent reading. With the movement they will give better quality work and enjoy their time in the classroom.
