The students in my science classes are a diverse group of kids that put in maximum effort on a daily basis. As a teacher, I have seen so many of my students struggle to pay attention when asked to sit still all day, everyday. To help my students manage their wiggles, I allow them to stand when needed as well as frequent breaks. I'm hoping to use Donorschoose.org to gather a class set of kick bands and stress balls to help students who prefer sitting, but still have need of a focus tool.
The extraordinary energy and commitment to work my students show always blows me away.
They all want to do well in school and are working to get themselves out of the inner city. Being able to add to their educational experience is one of my major commitments. Kick bands and stress balls will give each of my students an additional leg-up.
My Project
Focus tools such as kick bands and stress balls will give my students a helpful way to focus their wiggles and succeed in school on a daily basis. Students will be able to stay in their seats, complete assignments faster and find more confidence in the classroom as they use these stress relievers.
Imagine the comfort a set of kick bands will give to students feeling the stress of an exam or who are worried about a presentation.
Kick bands and other focus tools have proven to boost academic success with students who struggle. With academic success being such a struggle for my students, your gift could make an incredible difference.
