My students have absolutely loved their seat sacks and new flexible seating. When the boxes first appeared in the classroom, the delight on their faces was priceless. All 24 volunteers helped me unbox the seat sacks and couldn't wait to choose the one that would be theirs. Each student has loved having a space that is \"all their own\" to hold all of their belongings. They have customized each seat sack with their own special name tag to reflect their individual identities. These have also saved my sanity by helping to keep our classroom neat, organized, and the clutter to a minimum. \r\nThe flexible stools have been a huge hit. I only had one before that was handed down by a retiring teacher, and my kids would fight over it. Now, students working at my table get picked each day to sit in our wobble stools, and it is the best part of their week. I have students come in each day asking who was picked for the stools on that particular day. They have also helped so many of my students who need a little extra help to focus on their work. They can move their body and gain so much more from the lesson. \r\n\r\nMy students have an exciting month of November coming up. We will continue our science unit, learning about how soil is formed and various rock formations. We take a virtual field trip to the Grand Canyon to discuss how the canyon appeared. My students also study archaeology and learn about the work of archaeologists. To simulate this experience, students will decorate a clay pot and then break it. They will then try to put it back together just as an archaeologist would. Lastly, math is primarily focused on multi-digit multiplication, whereas reading is concentrated mainly on nonfiction texts. November is a very exciting and engaging short month.

This innovative device has transformed the way we integrate storytelling, music, and mindfulness into our daily classroom routine. Whether students are listening to an engaging audiobook during independent reading time, enjoying calming sounds during quiet breaks, or exploring new vocabulary through interactive audio cards, the Yoto has sparked excitement and curiosity in our learners.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, the Yoto supports a wide range of student needs. For our emerging readers and English language learners, it offers an accessible and engaging way to build listening and comprehension skills. For students who benefit from auditory learning or need a calming sensory experience, it has become a powerful tool for focus and emotional regulation.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in our students' growth and joy.
