Improve Mental Health

Help me give my students fidgets for when they have anxiety, a speaker to be able to change up my methods of instruction with podcasts, and craft supplies so we can be away from technology and build hands-on.

My Project

I would like the fidgets because I have an increased number of students who have anxiety and their IEP says they can fidget. But, also kids constantly have their phones in their hands and now they can’t bring them to school. It gives their hands something to do while they still pay attention.

The speaker is so instead of me lecturing, we can listen to a podcast on the same topic.

My speakers now aren’t loud enough for the whole class to hear.

The paint and craft supplies are for the projects that we do to recoup the semester or unit. We take a break from technology and focus on building things with our hands that relate to our topic like target markets and consumer buying behavior.
