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 Students

My 4th-grade students always come into the classroom eager to learn! They are some of the most dedicated students I have ever seen, so this project will benefit everyone tremendously.

They are some of the funniest, sweetest, and most caring students I have come across, who are ready to conquer 4th grade.

They want to become avid readers in order to enjoy all aspects of literature. These students come in every morning with smiles on their faces​, ready and excited about 4th grade.

My Project

The purpose of this project to provide a flexible seating option for my students who struggle staying at the traditional desk. A portable desk will help kids focus without having to stay in the same spot for longer periods of time.

At this time I don't have floor desk therefore being able to get four portable desk will allow the student that extra choice to pick something different.

My goal is to provide a totally different learning experience for my awesome students.

Help me bring this project to life to accommodate my 4th graders who struggle attending to task in the basic desk and chair.
