Moving, Wiggling, Spinning - Help Kindergartners Move!

My students need a variety of different seating options to help them wiggle, move, and spin while they learn and work!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Thoma's classroom raised $410

This project is fully funded

My Students

My kindergarten classroom is a place for students to feel welcome, safe, accepted, and comfortable! Kindergarten is a year of many firsts for students, and they deserve to have a personalized learning experience!

Five and six-year-olds are full of curiosity, wonder, and excitement and my job as their teacher is to provide them an environment where they can fulfill all of these qualities.

Each of my students is unique and I want to provide each students with a unique learning experience!

My Project

Students learn and work in many different ways, and need to be provided with accommodations to meet their diverse needs. Having a variety of seating options will allow my students to choose where they can learn and work.

Providing my students with different seating options will help them take a leadership role in choosing how and where they learn best!

Funding this project will greatly impact not only the students in my classroom, but future students! Each child comes to school with different needs and abilities, and I do not want to limit a student to only a table and chair to learn and work in. Students need to be able to move, wiggle, spin, etc. to help them reach their fullest potential in the classroom!
