Right now my classroom has tile flooring and at times it is necessary for students to move to the floor in order to participate in lessons or group work. Students sometimes become uncomfortable which leads to distraction and disengagement. It is also difficult for some students to write in these locations. The cushions and lap desks would help students to better engage in learning throughout all parts of the classroom. In 5th grade, students spend a lot of time and energy learning to use fractions in real life situations. These concepts can be abstract at times for students this age. LEGO bricks and fraction manipulatives would be a great tool for helping me to make these concepts more concrete and incorporate fun into their learning.
