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

The majority of my students come from low-income households and providing a comfortable environment is very important to me.

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and decide to make choices that work best for them during independent or group work.

I am confident that students do better work and are more engaged when they are allowed to make choices about their seating because they feel more comfortable and motivated than when they are just sitting at their desk.

Please help me to help my students succeed with these stools and sensory cushions!
