My Project
I teach on California's largest federally recognized Native American tribe's reservation. My school serves approximately seventy-five percent indigenous students. The campus is nestled amongst the redwoods where they meet the ocean and river. This school is so rich with culture, with traditional Yurok houses in the front, and a handmade dugout canoe as you enter the front doors. Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they thrive vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, arts integration, project based learning and inquire-based learning, to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are. They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful for this new group of learners.
My students this year love using the wobble stools that I have in my classroom.
Problem is I don’t have enough for all the kids who may want to use one. Over the course of another 2 of these projects I will be building a fleet of wobble stools for my classroom who has already proven they are mature enough to use them. Currently we 7 but 5 of those 7 are entirely to short for our tables. This does not stop my students from wanting to use them but having them so short doesn't make for a very agronomical class. These projects will allow me to reach more kids with stools and eventually everyone.
Wobble stools help students focus on their learning.
Donating to this project means more students have the opportunity to use a wobble stool to help them learn. My students would be thrilled if we had more wobble stools to use in the classroom. Getting more stools would ensure that students who need the stools to focus will have them accessible
