My Students

Picture yourself at 6 or 7 years old, going through a pandemic, and sitting in a chair all day. Now, imagine yourself in that chair and not being able to move around. That is reality for my students.

My classroom has the most genuine, hard working, talented, on-the-go minds you will ever meet and they do it each and every day.

They deserve the moon and the stars for adapting to this new form of learning and I want nothing more than to have more seating options to get their wiggles out.

My Project

I am seeking four Oodles to enhance student engagement while sitting at their desks. Each Oodle consists of three disks that can be separated to provide more seating options for students at different heights. Flexible seating enables students a preferred choice for learning and ability to move around while remaining at their desk. My goal is to have a classroom with all Oodle seating and flexibility to utilize at student desks and reading table. Can you help me add four more Oodles to my classroom give these students another reason to love school?
