What´s Fidget Therapy?

Fidget spinners are the biggest craze in everywhere, not just in schools. Teachers must have had more than enough of them with children they teach having them, their own children having them and even themselves being convinced into having one. They are now the one thing that teachers must hate more than students disrupting the class, Untucked shirts and those messy assignment sheets. Some students are only using fidget spinners as toys and are not listening to the teachers and not doing their because their attention is so greatly placed on the spinner spinning for up to 4 minutes. For other student’s the spinner are a great benefit because they are still listening to teachers and doing their work but the one thing that teachers still don’t like is the noise, which is an irritation buzzing sound.

Fidgets are a great way to keep children calm and collected, but in order for them to work, there needs to be expectations. For me as an adult, I can get a little antsy if I sit for a long period of time to what do I do? I just grab my phone out and mess around on it. In a school setting that cannot happen. Some different alternatives could be a stress ball, fidget cube, bag of marbles, or tangles, etc. Some expectations for the fidgets can be: keep it somewhere where it won’t be a distraction, use it nicely and properly, and if it gets in the way of work, then it gets taken away. If expectations get set, fidgets can be a great way to keep your student focused and not get over stimulated while getting their work done.

Personally, there are several purposes for the decision I made to purchase this fidget spinner. Primarily my decision to purchase this was to see how my 15-year-old son would do with having a fidget spinner as he has been diagnosed with ADHD, Anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Asperger Autism, however, my 16-year-old daughter also has ADHD and Anxiety, my 13-year-old son has ADHD, Anxiety, and there is belief that he has a spectrum of Autism, and personally, I have ADD and Anxiety. Therefore, I decided to purchase this fidget spinner to see if really subside with these issues and to my astonishment they really do help and become quite addicting. Furthermore, all three of my children have at least one fidget spinner as well as myself.

.Fidget get should not be allowed in school because it causes a distraction in class.One way it causes a distraction is when a teacher is instructing a student brings out a fidget spinner and he or she attention is on the spinner not on the lesson.Second reason why fidget spinner is a distraction by kids have challeges.It is only for people who has ADHD and Autism.So in my opinion fidget spinners should be

Imagine children in a classroom trying to focus on what the teacher is saying. Then the students see this big, flashing, purple fidget spinner. It is very distracting and all of the students end up missing the whole point of what the teacher is saying. Fidget spinners should be banned in classrooms because they are distracting, a safety hazard, and many children are misusing them.

Fidget spinners were originally developed as a way for children with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or autism to relieve stress. This is a good reason fidget spinners should be allowed in school. In the text is says,’’ They timed each other's spin, recorded it on a table and then put it onto a graph’’ This brings them together and they spend

First of all in the article (WWW.Washingtonpost.com) the title says schools are banning fidget spinners, calling them nuisances and even dangerous by Valerie Strauss. In the article is says this about fidget spinners “They can be distracting when the kids use them as toys to do tricks.” What this is saying is that when the kids in class use their fidget spinners in class as toys and it makes the other kids not focus on what they are doing. How it can be distracting to other kids is because they have

First, I believe Fidget Spinners should be allowed at school because they help people concentrate. I believe this because, it gives you something to focus on. It helps people who can't sit still have

Fidget toys are used than just concentration, and Teachers and parent’s don't like that. I know that because there is a lot of schools that have already banned fidget spinners from school. Even some parents that say they are really happy that they banned the fidget spinners because they believe the spinners are used for toys and are a distraction in class. My evidence #1 supports my main idea because Ellison is a Principle that believes spinners are a distraction. I am showing that Teachers and also principles don't like the idea of fidget spinners. I am not saying that all adults don't like the idea fidget toys, of course there is some adults that do like the idea and are allowed to be used in the school. The teachers say the students

I have chosen to do an essay on “ Fidget Spinners: What They Are, How They Work and Why the Controversy.” I have chosen this article because fidget spinners are a huge thing right now; also, I believe this is included in the science category because it talks about kids with mental disabilities using them.

Fidget Spinners should be banned from school because they cause they are big distraction. In the article, “ Let’s Investigate the Nonsense Claim That Fidget SPinner Can Treat ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety”, it stated, “ I haven't seen any scientific evidence on fidget spinners, ‘ Poss told me ‘ From on what I’ve observed they are just a distraction. I would not recommend them to my patients”. This is showing that Posd, a therapist, is saying they are just a distraction and not helpful. It’s important because a therapist, who knows what more than other people on what helps people and what does not help people, said they truly don’t help in any way or form and are just a distraction.

“So the way you guys can solve this problem is… SSSSSSHHHHHH… Ok Bobby can you repeat to the class how we solve this problem?” “What?, I didn’t hear you over Sam’s fidget spinner...” This is one of the situations that could occur if we allow these unnecessary toys in school. Recently, the trend of fidget spinners has hit our society like a truck. However, they have became a debatable topic in schools. Some students think that fidget spinners are necessary for focusing in school, while other adults and teachers think that fidget spinners are a major distraction in class. Fidget spinners should not be allowed at school because of the negative impacts on the students who are supposed to be learning.

I really enjoyed reading this chapter and was very interested in the section about assistive technology and play on page 69. This really drew in my attention because I would have never thought about assistive technology for a student to play. However, this is a very important aspect of being a young child and especially one in a preschool setting. Adapting play with assisitive technology is just as important as using such devices for learning as well. This only furthers a student's ability to fit in with his or her peers in a way that is independent, which is so important for a young child's development. Students also learn so much through play at this young preschool age, making it even more important to adapt assistive technology to play.

Technology ought not to be utilized as an approach to keep students possessed. A little number of computers or gadgets in a classroom can be a welcoming focus, whether it is a relegated or a picked toward oneself one. In the event that you utilize technology as a part of thusly, pick astutely when you choose what the students will do with the technology. There are a lot of people, numerous inventive choices accessible. It ought not to be just to keep students occupied while you work with little gatherings of

“Some toys have a powerful influence on children’s thinking, interaction with peers, and creative expression.” (Prof. Trawick-Smith) The environment around a child has an incredible impact on their development. From a home setting, to a park setting to a school setting a child is constantly learning. Many studies have been done to determine how individual toys can affect a child because it is important for parents and educators to be informed. Even though many adults have their own idea of what is a good instrument for their child's growth, research and test can help point the way.
