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 students are a group of amazing 4th graders in a public NYC school.

It has been a difficult few years for many of them, learning through a pandemic.

Now that we're back in the classroom I want to create a perfect classroom for them to feel safe and ready to learn. They benefit from individualized instruction and a flexible classroom environment that supports their success. My students are fun, caring, and curious kids who love to learn.

My Project

It has been an intense few years for my NYC fourth graders. Many were learning from home last year but were so excited to be back in the classroom. Getting back into the routines of sitting in a chair, especially now with social distancing policies, has been a challenge for them. They have a lot of anxiety and need to get their wiggles out!

These chairs will be the perfect fit for our classroom and making sure ALL students can focus and learn.

I know that these will help them to feel safe and comfortable and do their best in the room.
