Health 4.3 Discuss the effects of stress on the body. My goal is for my students to be stress-free in class. I want my students to feel at home in the classroom by sitting in comfortable seating. Our students have been through enough in the past year, and making my room feel more like home will create a less stressful environment. Making sure students are in a nice and calm classroom is important. When students get the option to sit in more comfortable seating, they can relax and not be so stressed out. They can have more meaningful and engaging learning with their peers. My students do a lot of group work, and I want them to be able to move around my room and discuss their ideas and projects in a way that allows them to be comfortable while they work. Allowing my students to make their own groups with flexible seating will give my students the opportunity to share ideas and discuss with their peers. They will have less stress on their body and feel more connected with others.
