I believe the interactive classroom with a cozy at home feel will help kids with depression and anxiety. I believe the fun interactive seats and the movement in the classroom is a key element of a successful school day. I will also incorporate games, brain breaks, and cross-brain activities. I feel the movements will be a nice addition to these things. They engage your core more, which in turn increases blood flow to the brain, thus having increased attention and focus skills. They are, in my opinion, all-around beneficial. I am hoping to incorporate the stools, lap desk, and fun bright color rugs will help with depression and have students be more engaged and happy. Hopefully in a year or two my scores will be better than the years that my students have taken the test without the interactive, cozy classroom. Of course, every class is different, but in my opinion, the use of the stability balls or pedal seats will play a role in my students' academic successes. Again I believe: -Improves learning through movement. -Promotes "active sitting" without much disruption. -Improves posture. -Help with Anxiety and depression -Increases blood flow to the brain and the entire body. -Strengthens core and back muscles. -Improves balance and coordination.
