This teacher needs your help!

Flexible Seating Creates an Environment of Excellence in Learning!!

My students need wobble cushions and balance balls to help create flexible seating within our classroom to maximize their learning and excitement in our room.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bowling's classroom raised $543

This project is fully funded

My Students

Three groups of twenty-five students will come in to learn and work on reading and writing each day. These students are motivated and ready to learn and excel!!

Our theme this year is "Anchored in Excellence" and my students strive to work towards excellence in all they do.

They are hard working and ready to excel. They deserve the best and I want to facilitate that for them.

Students are the leaders of tomorrow and I want to help them be the best they can be!!

My Project

My goal is to create a warm and inviting environment that promotes Excellence in Learning. These yoga balls and disks will help to create a fun atmosphere where students get to choose their seats and learning environments.

Students need to have some control and choice in their environment and flexible seating allows them to make those choices.

This project will transform our classroom and create the type of environment that promotes Excellence in Learning!!

In a classroom with flexible seating, students are given the opportunity to make choices and work in their best environment; this will help them to refine the leadership qualities that each of them have inside!
