This teacher needs your help!

Ms. Shaffer from Kailua Kona, HI is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Flexible Seating Accessibility

Help me give my students quality wobble stools to allow more students flexible seating.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shaffer's classroom raised $733

This project is fully funded

My Project

The more students in our room who have access to flexible seating, the better! I have found that flexible seating allows students to better focus in class. I have also found that flexible seating reduces distractions due to kids having an outlet for energy.

These resources will really make our class shine!

Specialty high interest books will help refresh our classroom library. Students who do not have a wobble stool will use bands at the bottom of their desks to help them concentrate. We also ordered a STEM kit to get kids engaged in hands on learning. I can't wait to share these items with my students! Mahalo for your donation.
