My Students

I currently teach 25 amazing students that qualify for free lunch and breakfast programs at our school. It is a diverse class, both culturally and linguistically, that includes students with specific learning disabilities, to gifted and talented students. I am constantly seeking new ways to provide opportunities for growth almost my students.

Teaching students skills that enable them to engage in optimal learning by choosing who they work well with and where they work best.

My goal is for students to leave third grade knowing how they learn best.

My Project

Studies have shown no that in cooperating flexible seating gives students the option to control their physical environments in which they work best. In other words, with choices, students gain greater flexibility and control of their surroundings giving them the autonomy and comfort to stay engaged and focused. (Wright, C., 2018) Therefore by using wobble seats, stadium seats, and folding tables students will be able to have access to the specific style that suits the individual student.

Flexible seating options will provide for students to take ownership of their own learning.

By providing flexible seating my classroom environment can be enhanced.
