My Project

Students love variety and choice, especially when it involves where they work! Who could blame them? I love sitting in a hammock swing on the back porch to read, or sitting on the couch to write, or even working on the floor at times. I want students to have opportunities to work where and how they can be successful in the classroom.

With the purchase of these materials, students will have new stools for the teacher small group table, tractor stools for a workstation in the classroom, and stadium floor seat for a flexible option during math centers.

These options are perfect for students with disabilities, special learning needs, and many other circumstances because the offer the opportunity for movement when needed and flexible choice for them to determine how they will be successful.

We often work at our desks or on the carpet during whole group learning, but students have choices and centers to go to during small group learning, which is where the magic happens! This is when students are working on skills they need in order to best succeed. This is when the teacher or teachers are working with students on their level to help them reach their highest potential. Please consider helping me continue to create a positive, engaging, and inviting learning environment for my amazing students! Thank you so much!
