When I first introduced the students in my class to an illusion bubble management tool, I never realized that it would be such a good classroom management tool. All of my students could use something like this to keep their hands busy while they learn. Sometimes, my students have an issue keeping their hands and bodies still because of learning disadvantages, the need to be on medication, and other unforeseen learning disabilities. My goal is to provide my students with a way to keep themselves on-task where there distracting movements can be calmed with a simple plastic behavior management tool.
