My Students

I teach 2nd grade at a fabulous public school located in NC. My school is "home away from home" for students in grades PK-3. We are a Title 1 school and many of our students qualify for free lunch.

My 2nd grade students are eager, curious, and full of life!

They are the VERY reason I am here, to try to get help for my precious students. Every single day is a new adventure for sure, and I thoroughly love my job!

My Project

I am asking for 4 balance balls and an inflator so my students have alternative seating. Students spend so much of their day in the classroom, I truly want them to be as comfortable as they can be. These balance balls will allow students to have an option for where to sit besides a hard chair.

These inflatable ball seats allow students to move and balance—reducing restlessness and improving focus while they learn!

I have students that honestly cannot sit still all day no matter how hard they try, trust me! I think if I have these flexible seating balls for my students to use it would be so helpful!
