My Students
My students are curious, eager learners. They love to learn and do best in engaging environments. They are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging activities.
Every child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly.
I incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a group of learners that are so excited and ready to learn!
My Project
First graders are an energetic bunch! Much is being asked of them throughout the school day, and sometimes their little bodies just want to get moving.
These materials will give my students movement and comfort options when needed to stay in one spot.
The chair bands let students have a comfortable place to rest their feet while sitting at their desks. They can rest or shake their legs on it while staying seated. The lap desks can be moved to different locations within the classroom, letting students stretch out on the floor, while sitting upright at a desk at the same time. The floor cushions can be used with the lap desks or on their own, create a cozy spot for learning to happen.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
