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

Thank you for visiting our page.

We are looking to provide our students with more comfortable seating options in the classroom.

We want them to feel at home in their classroom ~ a comfortable and safe space for them to build upon their knowledge and interact with their peers.

Currently, our students’ only seating options are desks. We would like for them to have options on where they would like to sit while engaging in classroom activities, including wobble stools, beanbag chairs, and floor cushions.

As fifth grade teachers, our goal is to cultivate independent learners who look forward to spending their time in our classrooms.
