My Project

The materials I am asking for will help the students learn to read. All kids need to be exposed to decodable texts to help them learn to read. Also, there are students at the younger grades that need flexible seating, standing desks, wobble chairs, special seats, to help them stay focused during school. When they are able to focus more, they will then be able to fully be ready and available for learning. I work with students mainly one to one so if I am able to fully get their attention and let them get their movement out in more productive ways, like with flexible seating, I will help them learn to read
