There is so much to love about my students. They are extremely diverse, especially when it comes to music. They have such a broad range of interests and ideas on how to express themselves musically. I am amazed each day by their creativity and their ability to pick up on learning new music so quickly. For some, music is the way my students are able to express themselves.
My Project
These materials will make a difference in my students' learning because they promote that it's okay to need a break sometimes. Whether we are children or adults, we all need to take a break and shut our minds off for a minute or two. In my classroom, I like for students to know that's okay too.
What better way to catch your breath when you're feeling stressed or angry by doing it in style?
The fun break table and chair allow students to feel a sense of happiness while they are cooling down. Listening to music, coloring some pictures, or perhaps just feeling some different sensory objects are all wonderful ways for students to additionally cool down and get ready to come back to learning!
