My Project
I am always trying to find a balance between providing my students with direct teacher support and encouraging them to make their own decisions that will equip them with strong self-monitoring skills. With bean bag chairs, my students will have a more comfortable place to reflect their emotions. Having a guiding breathing light and various fidget toys will help my students to relax their bodies. I know my students will receive the breaks they need in a cozy corner, to reflect on something that may have upset them in the day and refocus.
