A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
I am lucky to serve the most creative, active and brilliant students that need the flexibility to be able to control their own learning. Every day they come enthusiastically to learn and discover everything that I as the facilitator have to offer to them. They are little great minds that love to work hard and accomplish their goals. They are the pioneer group in our school in a dual language and fine arts program. My classroom needs to adapt to their needs for movement while giving them choices that make them feel acknowledge and comfortable every day.
My Project
My student-centered classroom needs seating choices to accommodate a morning and afternoon class. These choices will provide a sense of freedom and will divide stations in a math, science, social studies and language arts classroom. According to research students learn better when they feel comfortable and have choices. I am confident that by giving them a variety of alternative for seating will reduce their anxiety of learning in a second language and will engage them in the academic activities. I am requesting balance ball seats and wobble chairs. Learning is supposed to be fun, engaging and meaningful. By giving them the power to choose their seating and working area the learning process will be exciting every day for them.
This project will cover two classrooms with am and pm classes.
A total of 88 students will benefit immediately this next academic year every day.
