My students need balance balls, wobble chairs, and stools to accommodate flexible seating inside of our classroom.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ford's classroom raised $658
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
My students are buzz worthy first graders. I have a classroom full of energetic six years old who are ready to learn. As their teacher I am dedicated to their learning styles. They are in the beginning stages of their learning journey. I am molding them for their successful journey through education. I am here to facilitate active learning in an enriching environment. I hope to see them shine and grow as we continue to learn together. They will appreciate everything that is donated to our classroom.
My Project
Flexible seating is a new and exciting way to facilitate learning. These materials will improve the way my students learn inside of their Bee Hive. The exercise balls will bring a comfy feel to my nature themed classroom. The wobbling chairs will accommodate the needs of my student who need to move around. All of the chairs will be used at their desk. It's a nice way to keep my classroom space. They will be comfortable, happy, and delighted to learn. These three things are key factors in keeping students engaged. If my students are engaged when you walk in that means they are learning.
Flexible seating will make learning fun for the students.
Having fun while you are learning is very crucial.
More than half of students from low‑income households
