Mrs. Nelson from Dallas TX is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Moving Our Way Through Education

My students need the opportunity to move while learning. We ask children to sit still, be perfect angels, and learn everything we teach them; yet we are ourselves are constantly moving.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

"Every child deserves a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be." -Rita Pierson I want to be the champion in my students' lives that always believes in them; you can be a champion too.

Students in my classroom come from low poverty-high trauma homes.

My school is a Title I school with all students receiving free breakfast and lunch. Most students in my class are raised by single parents or even grandparents who have to work multiple jobs just to make ends meet. Many have a parent that is currently incarcerated. Despite the obstacles in their lives, they come to school excited to learn and eager to succeed because school is their safe place.

My Project

We all want our students to have the best opportunities to learn, grow, and more importantly thrive; but do we really give them a learning environment that contributes? Students learn best by moving; I myself still learn best by moving. These stools will help students to still be able to move while sitting. It gives them an opportunity to work on balance, posture, and just get their wiggles out all while learning. With these stools students will be better able to concentrate on the lessons given and then on their work to be as successful as I know they are all capable of being. I want my students to have the opportunity to see and believe in themselves the way that I do.
