Flexible seating allows young minds to be more focused and attentive. Being able to bounce, rock, wobble, lean, twist, and move helps oxygen flow to the brain. Furthermore students are empowered by choice, so the bean bags, yoga balls, and whiteboard materials will provide my students the opportunity to have more control over where/how they learn in the way that helps them focus.
Flexible seating also provides sensory input that is especially helpful for my students with ADHD and Autism. At the same time, having a spongy whiteboard eraser, noise reducing headphones, and computer mouse will help my students be less distracted and better able to use the Chromebooks we have. Often the mouse pad is very difficult for some little fingers to click, drag, and select.
The materials in this project will greatly help me reach diverse needs of my students. We will use the Legos in our science experiments to make learning hands on at all levels. These tools will help us better use the materials we currently have and provide a safe and comfortable place for students to learn in the way they need.
