Flexible Seating and Leveled Readers for Ms. Kesinger's classroom!

My students need options for flexible seating in the classroom. I am also hoping to get some high interest leveled readers for my students to access and enjoy!

My Students

My name is Courtney Kesinger and I am a Special Education Teacher as well as a Reading Specialist. I work with students from Kindergarten to 4th Grade but I mainly work with students in primary grades (K-2nd). My students would greatly benefit from some flexible seating options in the classroom as well as some leveled books that they can access and enjoy.

I am hoping to purchase several different flexible seating options for my students as well as some high interest and highly engaging leveled readers that they can use during silent reading time.

I am also hoping to purchase some cases for our Ipads and Chrome books so students can use them without worry. Thank you for considering donating to my students and my classroom!

My Project

My students would greatly benefit from some flexible seating options in the classroom. Many of my students need to move as they learn so providing different options for them will make their day easier.

I also work with many students who struggle with reading so I am hoping to purchase some high interest leveled readers for my students to read and enjoy!

The final thing I am hoping to purchase are cases for my Ipads and Chrome books. My students often use assistive technology to help produce written work. I would like to protect the Ipads and Chrome books so students can use these for a long time in the future!
