My Project

Fidget toys are essential for a classroom because they help students concentrate and focus. Distractions are always happening throughout the school day. These fidgets would allow the students with the opportunity to stay focused and secure at their learning area.

I feel it’s my responsibility to provide my student’s with skills and tools to help them be successful learners.

A major area in need in education is teaching the students how to self-regulate and stay focused, so these fidget tools will provide the students help in those two major areas.
