Help me give my students flexible seating options. I teach in an ICT setting that requires students to have the ability to sit comfortably to allow for maximum focusing.

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

Many of our students are ENL students. I work with children that have special needs and require more individualized focusing and attention to ensure that they are learning to the best of their abilities.

The school is in an high need area.

Ours is a Title I school, so at least 60% of students must be enrolled in the free or reduced price lunch program.

According to a comprehensive information report, students and families at this school require financial public assistance. The students could really use your help in receiving materials they would not normally be exposed to!

My Project

Please help me get my scholars the flexible seating options they need! I am excited to use these materials in the classroom as it will help the scholars that struggle to maintain focus within a traditional desk and chair set up.

Some of my scholars require the flexibility of changing their seating options to allow for maximum focusing throughout a lesson.

Given that scholars cannot move around as freely, I would LOVE for them to have the ability to change their types of seating when needed.

Every little bit helps!
