My Project
Food and fidget tools can play a crucial role in helping students to focus and improve their overall concentration. Firstly, food serves as a source of essential nutrients and energy that the brain requires for optimal functioning. On the other hand, fidget tools provide a physical outlet for excess energy and nervous energy, which can be especially beneficial for students who struggle with restlessness or attention issues. Fidgeting can actually help some individuals concentrate better by giving their restless hands or bodies an outlet, allowing their minds to focus more effectively on the task at hand. Tools like stress balls, fidget spinners, or even simple tactile objects like textured stones can provide a sensory experience that aids in concentration.
My goal for this project is to promote student focus in the classroom, this will aid my student's success.
To feed scholars is to nourish their bodies and their minds. To be able to teach students is make sure students basic needs are met.
My students are unique and have various learning needs, most are kinesthetic learners. Which benefit from manipulatives and fidget's tools. This helps to optimize student's instructional time.
