My Project

My students learn in a variety of different ways. Many of them are movers and shakers while others of them prefer a quiet learning environment. The fidgets in my project will give students are variety of options. They will be able to choose what will work best for them. The exercise balls are replacements for ball chairs that are well used and no longer hold air. The students will be very happy to get these chairs back into use! The noise reducing headphones will be replacing the lower quality sets I currently have. Unfortunately they are in constant need to repair.

These materials will provide a dynamic and energetic group of students choices in how learning will look best for them.

Be that they need to fidget with an itam, bounce at their seat or reduce the classroom noise; they will have options!
