New Tools for a New Year!

My Project

Giving students choice in their seating options also provides them with a sense of independence and ownership.

The flexible seating options I have selected promote fitness, focus, community, and sensory needs.

Balance chairs and balls are great for students who need a little extra movement throughout the day without disturbing those around them. These choices also provide a sense of novelty to learning that engages students throughout the year.

Additionally, the extra materials on my wish list will help our class stay organized with giving them choice. The new carts will hold our stations so students can practice their skills with games and other fun activities. The book bags are such a great tool for students to keep their books organized, safe, and with them at all times to promote reading. Expo markers and Hot Dot pens help us change up our learning activities to keep learning novel and fun.
