My Project

My students are developing skills to read, write and advocate for what they need in order to to be successful. With all the busy bodies in my room, they have voiced that having more options of seating will promote an environment of focus, where every student has choice in how to be productive while learning. Please help support my amazing readers by providing floor seats, wobble cushions, and balance balls to meet their needs. We are looking forward to a year of growth, learning, and success! thank you for helping us reach our goals!
