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 Robotics/ STEAM classroom is a large, cold ice box. During independent work, students often sit on the cold floor to code and test their robots. Having floor seating allows the students to have full use of the space provided to them while allowing them to work comfortably during independent work.

The floor seats are easy to clean and lightweight so they can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices.
