My Project

Please help some awesome 2nd and 3rd grade students improve their focus and their literacy learning outcomes through providing flexible seating. Comfortable and movable seating helps students when they are working hard on reading and improving their literacy.

These wobble seats that I am looking at will help students who have trouble sitting still to move and groove while they work.

This way, they will focus better, work harder, and, hopefully, have higher rates of achievement and outstanding academic outcomes due to their focused hard work.

I teach 2nd grade literacy in the mornings and 3rd grade literacy in the afternoons. I love my job, and I love my students. I really want them to excel this year. Can you help?
