My Students

I teach in a self-contained special education classroom. I serve students in grades K, 1, 2, and 3.

My students are unique, creative, and have a love of learning.

Each of my students has different needs and we work hard in my class to meet each of those individual needs. One characteristic I find most often is the need for movement. This can be difficult at times during instruction, so we believe incorporating desks with swinging footrests will help them stay on task and focused as well as fulfill the need for movement.

My Project

Each of my students have different needs and we work hard in my class to meet each of those individual needs. One characteristic I find most often is the need for movement. This can be difficult at times during instruction, so we believe incorporating desks with swinging footrests will help them stay on task and focused as well as fulfill the need for movement. The desks allow the students to swing their legs as they need without any noise or distraction which is perfect for a classroom setting. By donating to this project, you are supporting a classroom of students who are excited and passionate about learning, but just need a little more access to fully meet their educational needs.
