My Project

I am requesting funding for stable, non-moving chairs for my students during our Tier 2 phonics and reading lessons. Currently, when students sit at the Smartboard or reading table, they use wobble stools. While these stools help some, they are not ideal for all students. Some find it difficult to focus because they struggle with sitting still, and others can't reach the stools properly, making it even harder for them to engage in learning.

Providing students with the option of stable, comfortable chairs will make a significant difference in their ability to focus and learn.

It will help them stay engaged during lessons and improve their comfort as they work hard throughout the day.

Thank you for considering funding these chairs for my students. They truly deserve a comfortable and supportive learning environment!
