This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
Every day I walk into work and think, "What can I do to make my students' time here worthwhile?" Many of my students have a multitude of needs and require materials to help foster their growth and learning. Even with many odds against them, they still come to school ready and eager to learn.
My school is a Title I school with over 90% of students receiving free lunch.
Having the materials they need to support their learning would be a great help to them.
My Project
I am looking to transform my traditional classroom setting into a flexible seating classroom. The students in my class would be able to have access to adjustable tables, balance balls, core disks, and lap desks which would enable them to determine what works best for them as they work in small group and independently.
My goal is to give students options that will hold them accountable for their own learning, support social growth, and help them to produce their best work.
Arranging a classroom with alternative seating (flexible seating) helps to support learning, work, and growth as students navigate content and social skills.
Providing students with adjustable tables, balance balls, core disks and lap desks helps them stay accountable. Flexible seating helps provide problem solving skills and helps to engage them during work, all while they also burn off excess energy.
