Mrs. Wines from Hilo HI is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Strong Chairs for Sitting and Books to Read!

Help me give my students quality chairs to sit on adding to the joy of their reading and learning. Graphic novels are popular and provide a door to reading that even the most reluctant reader can walk through.

My Students

Fourth grade is a time where wonder and curiosity shine. My students are excited to explore, create, and build their knowledge across all subject areas.

Enthusiasm and the joy of learning shine through in all that my students do.

They are ready to dive into any task with excitement and expectation. My students come from many backgrounds. Importantly, they work together for common goals. This is supported by a strong culture of respect and learning that is woven throughout our school.

My Project

A place to sit in the classroom is important. Providing flexible seating options for my students is an essential component for learning. Going along with the seating are books that excite and get students reading. The chairs and the books will open doors for learning.

Chairs that are colorful and safe for sitting will create an environment where learning and exploration can easily and safely take place.

Adding graphic novels to the classroom library provides books for self-selected reading that students are thrilled to read. A broad choice for students in seating and books help to make the classroom a welcome place to be.
