My Project
I'm happy my students love mathematics! They cannot get enough of practicing multiplication, division, and fractions.
I can hardly get a question out before all hands go up to answer math questions.
They enjoy showing what they know or what they have learned on the smart board or on the chalkboard.
The stability balls will help my students achieve their mathematics goals by challenging them to sit up straight, pay attention, and focus more. The stability balls will help the students focus because they have to balance on them.
This will be the perfect alternative seating for my active classroom and will help me build exciting and engaging math lessons. The balls will help provide flexible seating for high-energy and active students in my classroom. They can help to promote healthy posture and healthy minds. Flexible seating will encourage them to learn and adapt while I am teaching. It can also be a healthy choice for building good posture while building core strength from active sitting and play in the classroom.
Most of all, I look forward to these balance balls improving focus and concentration, helping increase blood flow to the brain, increasing concentration, reducing restlessness, and preventing boredom and distractions in class by keeping their bodies active and their minds engaged.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
