My Students

My students are a group of highly energetic and motivated first graders. They love to learn and delight in sharing their knowledge with others. My students come from diverse backgrounds and our school is located in a high needs area. With that in mind, I want to give my students every advantage that I can to be successful and reach their full potential. We learn from one another on a daily basis and strive to be cognizant of what we can do to help others through learning and caring. Being able to fully meet the diverse learning styles in my classrooms is something that I strive for on a daily basis.

My Project

These wobble wiggle seats are perfect for my students who struggle to get comfortable while doing classwork. Engagement can be tricky for my little ones who wiggle and squirm trying to get comfortable in their independent learning spots. These seats are exactly what I need to help my students be engaged and successful while learning. Not all students learn the same way nor do they all need the same learning tools. This is just what I need to help differentiate for students in need of other supports to be successful.
