Yoga Balls to Get Their Sillies OUT During Synchronous Learning!

Help me give my students yoga balls to help with their jitters and posture. These kids are tired of just sitting around, so let them bounce up and down and get out their sillies while learning in class.

My Students

Our classroom has been greatly affected since the onset of this pandemic and the closure of our school. We have been using our scarce resources, first, to come together again as a virtual classroom. We have had to share WiFi, devices, and classroom basics with families that are not able to afford them due to their sudden hardships. We are making the best of a bad situation.

My Project

Like all students this year, our students have worked through incredible circumstances to persevere. Their resilience and determination have been amazing to witness.

I am constantly impressed by my students' creativity, ingenuity and the joy they find in learning and sharing their knowledge with others.

I love facilitating their educational journey. The addition of the yoga balls allows us to get the students energized and active while building up the motor skills they need. They are tired of sitting all day behind a screen, hopefully this will help them get their sillies out during synchronous learning at school. This project has the added benefit of being flexible so that we can sanitize and socially distance keeping our students and staff safe!
