My Students

My students are from a Title I school with a large number of English language learners in New York city. Every child in my class is inquisitive, talented, and compassionate. They are genuinely curious about the world around them and always eager to explore and learn each day. Although students in my class love to learn, their learning styles vary greatly. I try to incorporate different strategies, such as flexible grouping, visual supports, motor breaks, and technology supports to meet my student’s needs.

My students can benefit greatly from having flexible seating options to help them concentrate.

My students are full of possibilities. I am so lucky and grateful to work with such a class of incredible learners at my school.

My Project

Flexible seating options will provide ALL students with opportunities to work more comfortably throughout the day. With the wobble chairs, students can move around safely while working. The floor chairs with back support help my students stay more focused during small group work on the rug. These seat option can also create a quiet and cozy classroom environment.

Research proves that flexible seating options can promote learning in the classroom.

With more options, students will take charge of their own learning.

My students will benefit greatly with wobble chairs and floor chairs. Different seating options will make my classroom a better place for my students.
