My Project

I work with many students who struggle to sit still in class. Due to a variety of student needs my students need to wiggle and move to help them stay focused and learn. I want to give my students flexibility in how they sit so they can focus on the learning in the classroom.

My students will participate in a variety of hands on activities throughout the schoolyear and moving around will be a part of the learning process.

Allowing students flexibility in their seating choices will help facilitate a more inclusive classroom so all students can actively participate in their own learning.
