Calming the Library

Help me give my students serenity in the library by replacing the tennis balls on the bottom of the chairs.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

It may sound absurd to be putting in for a full set of tennis balls, but… trust me when I say, it works wonders. Picture this: a room full of fidgeting kids buzzing with energy, their minds racing with thoughts and bodies yearning for movement. And then, like a stroke of genius, those bright spheres take their place beneath the chairs.

Suddenly, the atmosphere transforms into one of serenity and focus.

The gentle bouncing and rocking that these unassuming balls allow to create an outlet for all that pent-up energy without disrupting the classroom's flow. It's like having a secret weapon in our arsenal against distraction and unrest. Please help us adorn tennis balls on the bottom of our seats in our Media Center.

Remember tennis balls are more than just rubber; they are vessels of tranquility and concentration in an otherwise chaotic world!
