My Project

When most of us were little, we were told to sit still in class. To not move or stand, or even wiggle in our seats. Thankfully, that has changed, especially in my classroom.

As an adult who knows that I learn best when moving, I also know that some of my students learn best while moving.

But, they need to move in ways that don't affect the learning of others. Help me give my students kick bands to add to their chairs so that they can bounce and wiggle their feet. Wobble cushions, so that they can move and bounce in their chairs. And sensory strips to add to their desks so that they can pick, rub, and touch things that feel different. Together, all of these items are going to make my students the best learners yet!
