My Students

Things that I enjoy about my students, my students enjoy coming to class everyday they show up with a smile and ready to learn. My students motivate me. I love to see the growth in my kids, the excitement in there eyes and voice. When I teach I reach not just one child but all. Rather its with a sight word, or an alphabet or even a smile or an encouraging word i reach them.

My students love to have fun while learning new materials..

My Project

With the flexible seating students are able to move around in the class continuing social distancing but still enjoy learning. Flexible seating also encourages students to stay calm while enjoying learning. They will enjoy being able to be comfortable but yet eager to learn daily.

As an educator I believe my students will participate more if they are able to sit in comfortable seats during lessons.

Their growth mindset will allow them to become higher level thinkers. These ball seats will not be used for home purposes but for class purposes due to the pandemic that we are currently trying to adjust to.

I am asking you to please help me to give my students flex space balance ball seats to set up a dedicated place for learning at home and to practice social distancing and a free pace environment in the classroom when schools reopen. This will allow the children to see a happy and loving and colorful place when they enter into the school doors each morning. They will be able to practice social distancing and enjoy learning in a comfortable environment.
