My Project

Comfortable seating allows students to focus and engage in class. Currently, my students are sitting on the ground. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. With the floor cushions, students can comfortably participate in the lesson. Students will then be more engaged. Clipboards provide a great alternative to desks. Currently, there are two tables where students go to complete written assignments, however, that leaves half of the class waiting for their turn. Clipboards will alleviate this to allow all students to complete the task as a class. Students will also be introduced to working in groups and sharing information with one another.
