My Project

My students love being able to move around the room to work. They also love utilizing flexible seating. This allows them to move by wiggling on a wobble stool, bounce on a bouncy roll, roll in circles on a donut seat, roll in rolling chairs, etc. With moving around the room, there are often distractions. Some students reading aloud, working on a different problem than them, etc. After whole group, students often work independently to complete a checklist. Therefore, students who sit near each other may not be working on the same exact thing at the same exact time. This allows them to work at their own pace. I have a few students who often utilize these headphones, however, we only have 2 so are often having to share. The majority of my students are often asking to use these, so I would love to provide them with this opportunity. Especially since they are asking for it and wanting them so that they can work at their best. In class, and even with special classes, there are times they can be very fun, exciting, and loud. However, this can at times over stimulate some students. Therefore, these students would wear these headphones to allow them to better focus and work.
