Ms. Newsome's classroom raised $503

Growing Minds With Flexible Seating

Help me give my students with flexible seating and essential classroom supplies that promote comfort, focus, creativity, and hands-on learning, creating an engaging kindergarten environment where every child can learn, grow, and succeed.

Ms. Newsome Riverview Elementary School
Murfreesboro, NC Grades PreK-2

My Project

My kindergarten students are curious, resilient, and eager to learn everyday. They encourage one another, celebrate every success, and approach each day with excitement. I love watching their confidence grow as they discover new skills.

Flexible seating will help them stay comfortable, focused, and engaged.

Headphones will support individualized technology lessons by reducing distractions and allowing students to learn at their own pace. Dry erase boards and erasers will provide hands-on practice, immediate feedback, and daily opportunities to build literacy, writing, math, and problem solving skills in a fun, supportive environment.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
