I have had a class set of 26 of these chairs and the kids love them. They help with movement and comfort while learning math throughout the class period. They help kids focus and pay attention the whole period. Being able to move while we are learning math is very important for some kids and these chairs really help with our learning environment. Kids can’t learn what they need to learn in math if they aren’t comfortable during lessons. These chairs will help make the additional students comfortable as well. It will be nice to have them to get a set of 30 for new kids are added. The chairs make a difference in their learning math skills.
Handing out gloves to kids at the end of the day as they leave the building has been great and middle schoolers actually take them!
I would love to get more gloves to reach more kids in our school. Middle schoolers don't always wear coats and warm gloves, but I have found that they love the little gloves that are colorful. They will actually take them to keep warm and it looks cool as other kids start taking them. This is my way of getting kids to stay warm and still have them be cool to their peers. This gives me a great opportunity to reach more kids in our whole building. My students already got gloves last month, but I didn't have enough for the whole school. This month we can reach even more kids. Thanks for the opportunity to help kids.
