My Project

The students I work with have a wide range of reading and writing skills. Practicing handwriting with a temporary medium such as dry erase markers and boards will keep the students encouraged to persist working on handwriting through their beginning struggles. The flexible seating will allow the students to change their workspace which will help with group work or independent work time.

The lined whiteboards are great for holding students accountable to proper writing form that will be consistent to work areas that they will be using to write.

The dry erase markers with eraser tips will help minimize the need for more supplies such as erasers, which minimizes distractions and keeps students at the boards writing.

The flexible seating options are there to help workspace and allow for a change of. With these fidget bands available at seats as well it will mitigate other distractions such as pencil tapping, leaning in chairs that are squeaky or the danger of falling in chairs.
