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

Flexible seating allows for students to make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, students often choose a spot in the classroom that works for them. Currently our students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: different tables, sitting with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board and cushion. Making sure students are comfortable is essential to creating a warm and welcoming classroom environment. We have noticed positive differences in our students' engagement when they are given a choice in their seating. Students make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed.

The products that I have selected will help our students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices.

The wobble stools are adjustable and will allow students to sit at desk/higher tables but will still allow some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. These stools can also be used as an alternative chair if needed. The comfy floor seats will allow for additional comfortable floor seating options. They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
