My Students

My classroom is filled with 24 eager to learn 3rd grade students. My classroom is filled with children from various backgrounds.

Creating an inviting environment by providing opportunities to reach the different abilities and needs represented by all, is my main goal.

Our class works collaboratively in groups, as well as, individually to build necessary skills to prepare for their future. Whether it be through seating, technology and/or basic materials, my students would be forever grateful for making their classroom fun and engaging.

My Project

The flexible seating options will help my students who need to move during classroom lessons. Whether it be the bouncy seat or a wobble seat, being able to move will be helpful to increase focus during the school day. The bands for the chairs will be just right for those students who need to wiggle but do not need a lot of movement. These will be great additions for our classroom. We would be so grateful to have these options in our classroom for our students. Just having the choice will make the students go crazy! They will love this!
