My Project
What's not to love about my students? Their curiosity knows no bounds, their resilience is inspiring and their unique perpectives enrich every moment. Thier laughter is contagious and their growth fills me with pride. Every day with my students is a reminder of the joy of teaching and the privilege of witnessing their journey towards becoming their best selves.
The wobbly stools can provide subtle sensory feedback by engaging the body's proprioceptive system, which helps balance spatial and awareness.
When studnets sit on wobbly stools, they need to make constant micro-adjustments to manitain thier balance. This can help keep them more alert and focused during lessons, as it provides a level of physical engagement that can prevent them from becoming too restless . Additionally the slight movement can also stimulate circulation and help prevent stiffness. The wobbly stool can promote active learning and improve concentration.
Sensory toys can be valuable tools in the classroom, providing a variety of benefits for students. They offer tacticle stimulations, which can help students with sensory processing differences and regulate their emotions and attention. They can promote fine motor skill developmen, encourage creativity and imagination and serves as calming tools during times of stress or anxiety. By incorporating sensory toys into the classroom environment, I will be about to create inclusive spaces that cater to diverse learning needs and support the overall well-being of their studnents.
