My students are hardworking, loving, and active children living in New York City. These students and their families come from diverse parts of the world, and we unite to succeed academically. My classroom motto is "You don't have to blow out someone else's candle to make yours shine brighter."
I love teaching my thirty New York City public school students.
But space in the classroom is minimal, and kids can start to get antsy from sitting all day on hard chairs.
By having these flexible chairs, students can wiggle and move but still be able to focus during the class day. As they sit on these wobble chairs, it will allow my students to improve their posture, balance, and core strength. The flexible chairs also have a calming effect, increase concentration, and help improve class behavior as students have the freedom of movement in their seats.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
