My Students
Our school is experiencing changing demographics with more than a third of these first grade students receiving free or reduced lunch. This enthusiastic group of students are achieving at a variety of learning levels. We are NOT a Title 1 school, so we don't receive funding.
I want to allow my first graders the opportunity to have flexible seating for their active bodies.
The wiggly six and seven year olds, research shows, learn better when they are allowed to move. Our traditional chairs limit the children and many times cause the kiddos to fall out of them.
My Project
I am requesting 2 Wobble Chairs to rotate through learning centers. This flexible seating will help improve both core strength and posture, as well as allow the kiddos to comfortably focus and dive into a good book.
By donating to this project, you will help increase student focus and ultimately improve their achievement.
It is no surprise that physical activity, which the wobble chairs provide, and the comfort of the "library chairs", is linked to higher academic performance and improved behavior. I'm dreaming these kiddos get to benefit from this alternative type of seating.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
