My Students

My students are the most amazing first graders ever! They walk into the classroom with huge smiles and the motivation to learn as much as they possibly can everyday!

We are a large elementary school with over 600 students.

We serve a very diverse population with a variety of needs. Our school promotes inclusive learning and works to meet the needs of every student. My classroom is made up of 21 first graders. My students all come from varying backrounds and bring something unique to our classroom family.

My Project

Research says children need to move! Meaningful learning happens when we are comfortable in our environment. I want my students to all be excited, happy learners! These Kore Kids Wobble chairs will help students have a chance to be successful while moving around! Wobble stools enable students to maintain focus on learning while having the age appropriate need to wiggle! These stools also allow fidgeting while not interrupting fellow students from their work. Children will have the ability to take turns using these awesome chairs to fit their needs during our school day. I can’t wait to see all the benefits in the classroom!
