My Students

My kindergarten students are very eager to learn. My school is a Title I school where over 50% of the kids receive free or reduced price lunches. These kids come from very diverse homes and many of them are English language learners.

My students meet me each day with enthusiasm wanting to know what the school day holds for them.

They are always ready to learn new skills and concepts, explore through hands-on learning, and meet their full potential daily!

My Project

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. When students can make choices they stay motivated. I have noticed differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their tables.

My students are more engaged in their work and less distracted when they are given a choice of where to work.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
