My Project

My students are always looking for other places than their desks to work, they are on the move to learn and explore. They love using every inch of the classroom to complete assignments and to work/play together. I am hoping the alternative seating cushions and indoor recess tools will help them continue to explore, learn and love coming school. Sitting at their desk makes for a long day! Getting up and moving to a different spot helps keep their bodies and minds on task. I know that having fun and educational tools to use during indoor recess will keep them motivated to complete their assignments and be able to have some free play!
