My Students

I teach 20 amazing kiddos who are bursting with energy! In 2B we love learning and getting our bodies involved and moving as much as possible. There is a lot of movement built into our day in attempt to let those normal 8 year old wiggles out. My students are hardworking and lifelong learners. They are curious about their world and are building a strong community within our classroom that supports their individual interests and endeavors. I am proud of my kiddos and look forward to seeing who they'll become in this word of endless possibilities.

My Project

Flexible seating allows my students to make choices. Just like adults, kids too, have preferences in how they like to sit. My 20 kiddos are full of energy and have active bodies. While they may be moving around, it does not necessarily mean they are off task. Any given day you will see my students sitting on the floor, standing, tapping, or rocking their bodies WHILE working!

Having kick bands, wobble seats, and yoga balls encourages safe body movement AND increases focus.

Modern students are no longer required to sit still while completing work or while involved in lessons. In my classroom students have two "rules" for flexible seating; 1. Be safe and 2. Work. Allowing students to move, fidget, and engage their bodies in a safe way while doing work increases their productivity and focus.

Thank you for considering our project and for valuing my classroom and active little learners!
