Accommodations to Support Student Learning

In our work in the classrooms at BES, it is sometimes necessary to bring in tools for children to use to increase their learning. Some of those tools are shown below. There are tools that are used class-wide such as the Drive Thru Menus and classroom yoga and tools that are specific to certain children such as Disc Sit cushions, ball chairs, Bouncy Bands, chair leg bands and pencil grips. Many of these items are used for students to increase their attention in class by helping them focus for longer periods of time or by activating their core muscles to improved sitting posture for longer table top activities.
