Mrs. Isaac’s Classroom Edit display name

The classroom environment is the one of the most important parts of any child's journey through school. I believe that enhacing the environment by using balance ball chairs, lap desks, and bean bag seats will motivate scholars to do their best work. The home life of many of our scholars doesn't offer them the academic enriched, quiet, comfortable, stable environment they need and desire but that doesn't mean they don't deserve it. As the curriculum changes, technology andvances, and teaching becomes more student-centered; it's only logical that the classroom environment meets the individual needs of scholars where it affects them the most--their seats. The addition of balance ball chairs,lap desks, and bean bag seats to the classroom seating would definitely meet individual scholar needs. By donating to our project, flexible seating would not only enhance the classroom environment but help improve and increase their focus and academic achievement. Scholars focus will shift from me, me, me, to the academic material at hand and increase their desire to learn because needs will be meet upon entering the classroom. I experienced the difference flexible seating can make within my own classroom. I went from correcting minor behavior issues to providing positive feedback on completed assignments all because a scholar had flexible seating. It wasn't the norm for the class but it worked for him. I have a classroom couch that the scholars love and I feel that in this upcoming school year I will offer flexible seating throughout the entire classroom. Your donations towards this project will be greatly appreciated!
