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 are learning to identify tools and workspaces that help them focus and learn best. By recognizing their learning styles and their individual movement needs, students are becoming advocates for their learning.

Providing choice in seating further empowers them and promotes independent learners who have ownership of their learning and classroom.

The flexible seating items requested will provide a variety of options for students who need to move or sit in non-traditional chairs. The pencil holder will filled with sharpened pencils that will be available for all learners to grab when they are seated around the classroom. The magnetic folder holder will have all useful information for my students to utilize if they forget something. For example, class codes, student ID's, e-mails, passwords, etc.
