Ms. Andreychak from Biddeford ME is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Comfortable Seating for Active Second Graders!

Help me give my students flexible seating options. I have second graders who are very active little learners. Wobble stools, yoga ball chairs, and cushions, will give my students places comfortable places to sit for their best learning!

My Students

I teach some AMAZING second graders! I teach at a Title I School that serves a diverse population of learners. More than half of our population qualifies for free and reduced lunch. Every day my students come from many different places and many different circumstances, but they are all ready to learn!

Their smiles each morning remind me everyday why I became a teacher!

In my classroom, I strive to create a positive learning environment that celebrates differences and makes all of my students feel comfortable and excited to learn! I love each one of them and want them all to be their best!

My Project

My class is always on the move! My students need flexible seating options to better meet their individual needs. Many of my students have a very difficult time sitting in traditional seats. The yoga ball chairs, cushions, and wobble seats will allow students voice and choice of where they can sit to best access their learning!

Research supports the use of flexible and movement seating to increase attention and focus.

Rather than having students focus on sitting still, students can focus on their learning with these flexible seating options. Students all learn differently, so there should be different seating options to reflect that. These wobble chairs, yoga balls, and cushions will make a world of difference in my class.

Please consider helping give comfortable seating options to my class!

Thank you!
