Bouncy Bands will allow my energetic students to expend energy while actively engaging in instruction. The school I work in does a great job of providing time for students to move around throughout the day. But, even with the extra time, my students spend ample amounts of time seated. Within our classroom, many of my students require extra breaks throughout the academic day to regain their focus. However, with frequent breaks, we lose precious time for academics. Bouncy bands will provide a fun way for each student to use their energy that is quiet and not disruptive of the learning environment.
