If I could describe my students in five words, they would be: curious, sincere, compassionate, adventurous, and ambitious. Each student has brought their own unique personality and ideas together to create a trustworthy and comfortable learning environment. Creating a community is essential to taking risks and deeper understanding and my students embrace it.
I care about each and every one of my kiddos and they know it.
Taking the time to know my kids well, not just as learners, but as unique individuals has created a bond that can not be broken. When I hear kids tell me "I don't want to leave your class" and "I love you Miss M." fuels my passion to give them more opportunities to explore their minds and to be the best person they possibly could be.
My Project
"Doctors say that balancing on a yoga ball requires greater focus and promotes the flow of blood and oxygen in the body, which leads to increased brain stimulation and helps students stay alert." When a child has an opportunity to sit on a form of flexible seating, it allows students to direct their natural kinesthetic energy into a positive way because the student has to constantly move their body to maintain their balance.
Hokki Stools increases brain stimulation allowing students to be alert and reach their full potential as a learner.
By helping to fund this project, students will use Hokki Stools to keep them focused, improve their posture, and exercise!
