My students need these items - like ball chairs, stools, wobble cushions, and a coffee table - in order to have an incredible and vibrant space to work independently and share ideas with peers!
Students at my school are amazing in numerous ways! I want to ensure that they know they are worthy of an amazing education and a supportive atmosphere. We are a close-knit community and it is important that our classroom is a safe and engaging one. These students are talented and need to be encouraged and motivated to learn. With your generous donation and support, you are helping to promote valuable learning and provide these students with a brighter future. Any donation is extremely helpful and greatly appreciated by not only me but my students as well. Thank you!
My Project
In my experience, I've learned that students learn best when given the ability and flexibility in having a role in the way they learn. Reading is an essential part of learning which is why I am choosing to create a reading nook in my classroom this year. The crates will be recreated into benches/chairs with cushions to be placed around the table for group work. Students will also have the flexibility to move around the room with these. The furniture in all will create a vibrant and exciting area of the classroom, giving students the motivation to learn. This area also promotes ways of engaging with others during projects and assignments throughout the year. Students will be given the option to choose what type of chair they would like to do their learning in for the day. Students will be able to choose from a stool, exercise ball, wiggle cushion, cushioned crate, and bouncy band. All of these flexible seating options will allow students to choose how and where they want to learn in a comfortable manner. Many of these seating options are great for students who struggle with ADHD and have difficulties staying focused. We cannot look at the change in our modernized world and then look into a classroom that is not modernized. Students learn differently and I am wanting to provide them with as much flexibility in my classroom as possible in order to help them succeed. Please help support my classroom; any amount is greatly appreciated!
