Mrs. P from Matthews NC is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Give the Gift of Flexible Seating and Sensory Options

Help me give my students flexible seating and appropriate décor to encourage their creativity and meet their sensory needs. While we learn in small groups, my students need to be able to choose their most comfortable personal learning.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I offer pull out and co-teaching within the inclusive model. I teach language arts, math, social-emotional learning, and behavior to diverse learners. I am here to help meet the educational and social needs of my students in the general education classroom and in the resource classroom. Part of the need is setting up a warm environment.

My middle school students are thoughtful, considerate, full of energy and full of laughter.

Students, families, and all staff work hard to foster a loving and resilient environment. I love how my students look out for and encourage each other throughout the day. They genuinely care about each other.

As I have had the opportunity to instruct and watch my middle schoolers, I am amazed how they approach their assignments, projects, and tests with eagerness and strive to do GREAT--not just good. I believe their eagerness involves having such an appreciation for being back in person learning. I watched today as my students completed week long research into China and allowed their artwork to tell the story. The depiction of the Chinese dragons and the Great Wall was very colorful, distinctive and lifelike. I want to provide and foster their creativity and eagerness

My Project

These materials will greatly impact my student's learning greatly. Currently, there are no flexible seating options nor sensory items to meet the needs of my diverse learners. The reversible sequin pillows will help the students be more actively engaged on task as they sit at the table.

The flexible seating options, such as the two toned ottoman, is soft and durable.

It is also easy to sanitize for in person learning. The flexible seating allows for my students' movement of their body to align with their brain and help focus.
