A wide smile, a gleam in their eye, and a thirst for learning, my students walk through the door each day ready to learn. My students are hard workers that love learning.
Despite the struggles of their home life, they work hard and face the challenges of learning with respect and perseverance.
They come from families with various incomes, but work together as a family to ensure everyone gets the help they need to succeed. They deserve to have an enjoyable learning experience each and every day where I can assist them in discovering their strengths.
My Project
The best learning happens with movement; students need to move when new material is presented. The wobble seats/stools will allow students to move while they are working in a small group with the teacher. The wobble cushions will allow them to move while they are working at their desks or on the floor. The balance balls will give them the opportunity to have some movement while they learn new material at various locations around the room.
As my students discover how they learn best, these options will allow them to focus and engage with their work to maximize their learning for years to come.
They will have choices on which seat is best for their learning and attention. The kids will take ownership of their learning and understand how their brain learns new material. They will carry this knowledge with them as they continue their learning after they finish 3rd grade with seating options that encourage movement while learning.
