This year, I am focusing on allowing for more seating freedom in my classroom. Fourth graders have long school days and a lot of energy to expend. Allowing students the opportunity for constructive movement and enhanced learning is a no brainer! Children are unique and the students at Mitchell Elementary are no exception! To aid the diverse needs of our students, flexible seating can help kids use up excess energy, increase motivation, and improve academic motivation. We need 5 Wobble Chairs and 22 Chair Bounce Bands to ensure that all students have the flexibility they need in their learning. Your donation could help maximize their abilities to achieve their dreams!
