An Inviting Classroom

Help me give my students an alternative desk to complete work, headphones when materials can be read to them, attention "getters" to help them remain on task, and treats to encourage taking chances.

My Project

Help me give my students an inviting room in which to work. Our classroom has standard seating, however, not all students may be able to be productive in such. Adding special alternatives will add a "pick-me-up" that enhances the learning environment for all.

My students work better when they have options along with a structured environment to help them be successful with daily tasks.

This project would help with creating a welcoming classroom while being allowed to move their bodies during learning. Studies have shown that movement enhances learning along with retaining information. What an exciting opportunity for all of my learners.
