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 first graders live in a low-income, high poverty area where they face many challenges in their daily lives. Our school provides free or reduced-price lunch for 100% of our students.

While they may struggle at home, they always come into the classroom with smiles on their faces and positive attitudes.

My students know that the classroom is their safe place, where they can come each day to learn and leave their worries at the door.

My Project

I am requesting wobble chairs to give my students an option for where they sit in the classroom that is the best for them when it comes to focusing.

This flex seating choice will help my students with their learning and their wiggles.

Having these wobble chairs will help with student engagement. I have noticed that my students that chose to sit in the one wobble chair we have in the classroom tend to focus on their work more as it helps them shift their focus from wiggling in a stationary chair to freely moving while concentrating on their work. Wobble chairs allow students to get their wiggles out and they can have fun while doing it.
