My Project

As a result of COVID, many students have lost touch with not only learning in a classroom setting, but themselves. From experience, the wobble chairs assist students who find themselves unable to concentrate unless moving; move to their own groove while working to the point where they find themselves being successful because they are not expected to just sit still.

Positive self affirmations.

The metal stamping supplies are to inspire them and remind themselves that they have what it takes to succeed in life and that they do matter. Many of my students do not hear this enough and need to be reminded.

Grades 9-12
