My Students

Do you know what it is like to need to finish work, write a paper, read a story . . . When all you want to do is put your left leg in and shake it all about?

I teach first grade.

It is difficult for a first grader to sit still for long periods of time. And let's face it, should a first grader really sit still for that long? Hokki stools provide constant movement while the student "sits" to complete work or explore concepts. The movement of the stool promotes physical well-being and balance to encourage a healthy lifestyle. These stools also promote intellectual well-being as the constant movement helps students focus.

My Project

My students need three Hokki stools to provide movement and promote health in terms of both intellectual and physical well-being. A hokki stool is designed to give the person sitting on it constant slight movement. This helps the child get the movement they need while sitting at their seat. They are able to have a longer period of focus time to complete more work and learn in an environment that is suited to their needs.

Your donation will help ensure that my classroom is equipped with Hokki stools to promote healthy lifestyles for both physical and intellectual well being.

Please help my kids do the Hokki pokey and turn our health around. Helping kids...That's what it's all about! Yeah!
