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

Help me provide my first grade students with several wobbly chairs as options for flexible seating in the classroom.

Unfortunately in school students are asked to sit and work for a long time!

While there is so much important work to be done, students at a young age still have the urge to move around.

With the wobbly seats students will have an opportunity to get their wiggles out while still sitting and learning.

My goal is to provide a fun option for special seating in my first grade class.
