My students are a bright, enthusiastic group that benefit from hands on projects. Our school has a very diverse population of students which means they bring a lot of great, unique experiences with them. Some of my students are English learners and I have a few with some special needs.
My students are energized to learn about their community and the world around them.
I am eager to provide them with what they need to make connections about the world and move them forward in their educational endeavors.
My Project
My kids love to learn but they sometimes have a hard time sitting still. The stools, chairs, and cushions allow them to sit in a chair or stool while rocking slightly so they an better focus on what they are working on. If kids can move their bodies more, their minds open up. While they are reading, focusing on a complex math problem, or working on anything else they are learning the research shows that kids who take more control of their seating to a situation that works best for them will engage their minds for longer periods of time and retain more.
