Have a Ball!

Help me give my students flexible seating so that they can have more choices when they sit at their desk. I would love to change up their seating routine and give incentives for good behavior with the seats.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Koehler's classroom raised $337

My Students

My students are eager and ready to learn this year! I have 20 students from a variety of backgrounds. They are learning with technology daily and are skilled on the computer. My students have great conversations with math and language arts and are learning new ways in math to better understand ideas. They are very willing to try new things and have a great passion for education. I love my class and the students I have and I am lucky to be their teacher this year!

My Project

I would love to include these yoga ball seats in my class. Kids have to sit for long hours in hard plastic chairs. It can become hard on the kids. I hope that by getting these chairs it will make sitting easier on the kids! I would also like to give my students something to look forward to when they come to class. Yoga seats are fun for kids and they look forward to when they come to class. I want my kids to have more options when it comes to sitting! Please help my class get these for their seats.
