My Students

My students are 14 wonderful little people who light up my life. All of them have IEPs and have some type of mental or physical disability, but that doesn't define who they are.

These future little professionals don't let their disabilities limit them in what they do and how far we go on a daily basis.

Their confidence and their ambition to overcome their obstacles in life give others who work around them the motivation to keep striving in their own endeavors.

Every student learns differently. I believe as a society we are beginning to see more and more studies that prove this. Everything from the way we learn, to the way we write, right down to the preference of seating in the classroom. Some students do better standing, while others enjoy flexible seating (ie- bean bags, yoga ball chairs), and other would rather be moving. This doesn't mean that they are not all actively engaged in learning. They are just doing it in a different way. These new additions would be able to address those students who benefit from movement while learning and would be a great new resource for our classroom. Also, giving them an outlet for sensory.

My Project

Most children want to learn. They want to work. However, we all work better when we are in a comfortable environment. I am striving to make my students as comfortable as they can be when they are in our classroom. With your help, alternate seating can be made available.

When students feel comfortable and loved, they will be worry-free and be able to work to their full potential.

These materials will provide a relaxed seating option as opposed to sitting in a traditional desk. This may be the key to seeing students succeed and soar! With your support, we can make this happen.
