Our morning is long and I have a few students that need a change in position during work time. I believe that having two standing desks in my classroom would give my students that need to move a break away from their desk without stopping their work completely. If they are able to stand while working, I believe they will be able to continue work and move their body which will help keep them from missing parts of the lesson, which causes confusion. There is a major connection to learning and movement. This project is a beginning step in the direction I want to go with making my classroom a “classroom moving in the Wright direction.â€
