My Students

My classroom is filled with 21 amazingly creative and thoughtful students. They come to school each day striving to do their best at all times. I am lucky to work in such an amazing school.

The students in my classroom are always eager to learn new things in creative ways.

Each student loves having the opportunity to move around the classroom to complete assignments and let their enthusiasm for learning shine. They are an incredible group of kids that welcomed me with open arms to my new school this year.

My Project

Students are expected to sit in hard and uncomfortable chairs for about 6 hours a day. I am requesting two balance ball chairs for our classroom. I have balance ball seating options in the classroom, but students have difficulty staying on them. With the chairs, students can get the benefit of the stability ball without the danger of falling off.

Students love having options in the classroom.

Seating options in the classroom give students the opportunity to make choices that best support their individual learning. These balance ball chairs can be used at student desks or around the classroom giving students increased flexibility.
