My Project

Let's face it...a growing body is a moving body, and my students are growing FAST both physically and academically. This project will support this rapid development.

The distraction of the mind can be remedied by managing the movement with sensible seating.

Sensible seating means accommodating this natural movement by using the requested 6 active sitting stools. Not only do these "hokki stools" help channel movement, they also offer different choices for children to choose which works best for them at different places in the classroom while working on different activities, assignments, and projects. Sponsoring this project will provide my students with the tools needed to further their progress as active and contributing members of our community.
