My Project

My students have unique learning techniques and often require fidgets to help them stay focused on the lesson. I try to offer a variety of tools they can use to be successful. Fidgets allow for busy fingers to calm.

I absolutely adore my students.

Another thing I have noticed with my students is their ability to be hungry. I have a snack drawer and anytime they are feeling hungry, they can have a snack. I am a firm believer in mints as well and believe they can help is by alleviating any anxieties we are experiencing.
