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

Children need to move their bodies! I don't want to sit in a chair for hours at a time and I am an adult. I believe that children, regardless of different learning styles, can learn without sitting at a desk and in a chair. We spend seven plus hours in our classroom, and having multiple places with different furniture to sit in would make our classroom more enjoyable.

I believe that allowing children to move around their classroom decreases anxiety, allows collaboration in small groups, and makes our classroom feel more comfortable.

Flexible seating options are a valuable addition to any classroom, regardless of the age or grade!
