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

At the beginning of this year, I chose to get rid of my teacher desk in my classroom to make the classroom more student centered. I wanted my students to have enough room for flexible seating, a place for a rug for whole class meetings, and grouped seating for small group instruction.

A kidney table would allow more flexible seating for my students to receive the small group instruction they need.

I would have space that doubles as an area to meet with small groups for instruction, work with students during literacy and math centers, as well as pull students who need additional supports or need testing accommodations.

Donating to my project would help create an open and comfortable space for my students and myself to work and succeed!
