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

My students are wonderful first graders who are learning how to read and have very inquisitive minds. I love how they like to learn new things and enjoy learning how to read. I want to give my students the option of where to seat when they are working with a partner during centers or just doing independent work. Students need to be able to move around to help them focus on their work. Being in a classroom for seven hours and just seating in one chair can be tiring for students. Having the flexibility to grab a soft seat and move it around the room to help them focus will be beneficial to my students learning environment.

It will give them the opportunity to be comfortable while learning.

The products I selected will give my students the opportunity to have some flexible seating and continue to help my students concentrate on their work.

The pockets will also help to give them a place to store their school supplies.
