No Stress Learning!

Help me give my students these stools so they can have fun when we are doing small groups because they are something different than what they normally sit on.

My Students

My students are AMAZING and we have developed a really good relationship. In the morning when they come in, I greet them with a high five, handshake, or a hug. We are part of the Wingnut club because we are learning to be OK with making mistakes.

Some of my students are extremely anxious about different things like tests, getting perfect grades, etc.

so we have learned to celebrate our mistakes because we can explain what we learned from making that mistake. Our classroom is a safe place to grow and learn because we get stars for being Wingnuts.

My Project

I know that the more relaxing and enjoyable I can make my classroom, the less stressed my students will be about learning new things. If I can set a good foundation for learning our standards, then when we are learning virtually, my students will remember the games and tools we used in the classroom.

I also know that if I can make what they are learning more interesting and fun, they won't even realize they are learning new things.

They will just be "playing a game", and then I will tie the game into our curriculum.
