The students in my school are an amazing group of kids - they are inquisitive, compassionate, and creative.
I am trying to refill my classroom with the basics for the second half of the year for my amazing students!
In order to provide my students with the opportunities needed to be successful, I am trying to help with their focus and retention of the materials presented. I would love to bring a research-based approach to my classroom through the use of flexible seating with yoga ball chairs.
The yoga ball chairs I have chosen to incorporate in my classroom will allow a range of motion while the students are staying seated and learning.
I am hoping that if I provide these items that will be conducive to our environment, they will help to promote collaborative, discussion-based group work and aid in taking my learners above and beyond and able to excel!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
