My Students

What makes my students different than other students? Well they make up 15.8% of the student body at my school with their unique learning styles and needs. I am a special education teacher who is embracing the learning needs and styles of my students in this world of education that is constantly evolving and changing.

Everyone has their own learning style and ideal learning environment in which they are able to study and learn at their best, my students are no different.

My Project

Imagine walking into your favorite coffee shop...what do you see? Tables and chairs, high-top tables, couches and other comfortable places to sit I'm sure. Why? We all work best in different spots. So why not have a classroom set up the same way?!

Traditional classrooms are known for having rows of desks however this type of setup up is not always best for learners in a special education classroom.

By having flexible seating within the classroom, students are able to pick a seat that helps them focus on the skills and concepts taught rather than be distracted by uncomfortable seating. Research shows that a variety of chairs and seating styles are necessary tools within a classroom environment that helps to facilitate methods of pedagogy and strategies for improving learning, engagement, and attention.

This will allow my students the opportunity to have a classroom set up for their unique needs and learning styles in order to decrease the physical and mental distractions. This flexible seating classroom would promote a learning environment in which students have a seating option that would promote student engagement, increase participate while getting the stimulus they crave without being a distraction to those around them with the end result of mastering concepts presented in class.
