Not all students have the same background, goals, likes or dislikes. With that being said, not all students are able to learn in the same environment. Throughout the last few years, I have learned that many of my students would rather stand, lay on the floor, use a blanket or pillow while independently learning. The items that I am requesting for use in my class, will allow students to choose the best spot for them to learn. The carpets will give students a soft place to sit or lay while working. Lap desks give students a larger work area when compared to a clip board. Lastly, the wobble chairs will give students the opportunity to sit at their desk, while continuing to move, for when the floor just isn't the right place, but they need to get their wiggles out. The easel will be used in a couple different ways. First, students will be able to stand at the easel and use the white board in order to practice sight words, math problems, or cursive throughout the year. Next, when we work together as a class, or as a small group, students will be able to see the anchor chart being worked on much easier and be able to reference it at their height.
