My Students
My students are diverse, active, curious, and eager to learn as they begin their foundation to learning in KINDERGARTEN. I love to be a part of my students' collaboration, creativity, and kindness as we work together to be the best we can be!
My Project
My students are energetic and excited. They love learning about everything and want to be and feel successful. With increased sitting, additional support is needed. Studies show that some students need far more movement while they learn than others. Students of diverse needs also require diverse tools to support their sensory needs, tools, etc.
Movement while learning has been shown to help students focus, especially our "wiggly" students with ADHD.
We need to adapt a bit to make it so that they can get movement in while allowing them to stay in their workspace AND wiggle at the same time with these wobble chairs. This will help our classroom be inclusive, calm, and productive.
Wiggling while they work will help our students become active learners, process and retain more information, and be more successful. We do our best with what we have, but sometimes that isn't enough to help our students who need it the most.
Sensory tools support learners in the classroom to ensure that their needs are met and they are set up for success to learn.
Thank you for considering having a helping hand in the education of our students!
