My students were so surprised to see all the new tools and choices and were energetic about getting to try them all out. So far this school year several students have visited the calm down zone to help them regulate themselves when they are feeling mad, sad, or silly. I love that there are so many choices and every student can find a tool that meets their needs from things to squish, spin, look at, build, and use to take deep breaths.\r\n\r\nNot only do my students enjoy visiting the calm down zone to help them regulate their emotions and bodies, but they have also enjoyed using the materials during free choice time. This is a time when anyone can play with and explore the items. The threading board and speed cube have been two of their favorites!

I have noticed that students with flexible seating are more engaged and alert than those sitting in traditional chairs.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the stacking stools have given us the option to have more seating available especially at the small group table.

Each student device gets a slot in the cart and the cords are able to be sent through little holders so they don't get tangled up.

My kids have quickly adapted to the change in the routine and have been working to get, and put away, their chromebooks quickly. They also really love the cart and I can't wait for them to be leaders in helping to make sure the cart is taken care of.\r\n\r\nWe are beyond thankful for your generosity and continued support of our classroom.

As the packages started arriving at school, the students grew more and more excited, and couldn't wait to see what was inside. \r\n\r\nThe first items that the students were able to start using were the wobble stools. The wobble stools have been a great addition to our classroom and have helped my students when they need a place to sit that allows them to move a little and get their \"wiggles\" out. The students take turns using the stools around the room and everyone wants the chance to use them. In addition to the wobble stools, the students love the two comfy floor seats that we got. They are a number one choice for independent reading, and the students love when it is their turn to kick back and relax while they read. \r\n\r\nIn addition to the flexible seating, the students have been getting creative with the marble run and building blocks set. Whenever they have free time or inside recess, they get those two items out first and start creating.
