My Project

Chair bands and a sit-stand desk are wonderful flexible seating opportunities for those who need a bit of extra movement. Calm strips also allow the students another outlet for their extra energy as they focus on class work and activities. Flexible seating has been found to be a huge game changer in previous classes and I believe that it would prove to be beneficial for the students. Headphones and computer mouse have become necessities when a large component of classes have become technology based. These items would all greatly impact and benefit the classroom learning environment and teaching experience. A pencil dispenser would also be beneficial for the students to have a designated place to get their materials and put them away.
