This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Lara from Abilene, TX is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Flexible Seating

Help me give my students an environment for flexible seating. I have seen the benefits of flexible seating and I would love to allow my students to have the ability to have this in the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lara's classroom raised $600

My Students

My students are outstanding. They are encouraging, uplifting to each other, and helpful to others. They give a sense of encouragement to me and others when they walk in the door.

They are kids you want to be around.

And they just continue to amaze me as they are growing throughout the year.

My Project

I am so excited to change up my classroom and allow my students to have flexible seating in my class. I have chosen so many different seats and options for my students to choose from each day and I am hopeful this will allow them a better and more fun experience in the classroom. I have seen how flexible seating can help students in so many ways and I am so excited to have that in my class.

I have added some books to this because I know how much my students love to read and adding another set of guided reading books for my groups is something I am so excited about and also another way for them to learn how to do their phonics skills with the paint trays.

More things I am learning through a class I am taking.

Thank you so much for your help.
