My Students

My students are 3rd graders from Brooklyn, NY, in a specialized program which provides them with educational opportunities in an 8:1:1 setting to meet their special needs as learners.

My students are curious, investigative, and ambitious learners, and one of my goals as an educator is to provide them with the most hands-on, meaningful, and engaging learning opportunities possible.

They strive for excellence on a daily basis and deserve the best opportunity for continued success possible. I am asking for your support by seeking help to make that happen. Thank you!

My Project

I am seeking funding for my well-deserving third grade students in the form of Wobble Seats, which will help provide alternate seating to help promote focus and meet the sensory needs of my learners.

The chairs will be used across across subject areas in order to provide students with flexible seating.

Flexible seating helps promote more on task behavior, stronger focus, and increased work stamina. These Wobble Chairs will allow students to choose the most effective seating choice. Students will be able to focus across subject areas by utilizing chairs that provide sensory input, refocusing opportunities, and promotes differentiated learning!
