My Students

My classroom is a busy, active, and diverse environment full of students who are engaged in their learning. I teach in a Title 1 school, with children who come from a variety of backgrounds. Many of my students come from a low-income environment. My students thrive in a hands-on learning atmosphere, where social-emotional growth is encouraged, and there are opportunities to grow as a successful individual.

Each donation to this project will benefit each of my students in a more meaningful and purposeful way conducive to their individual needs.

Many of my students need to move throughout the day but are hindered by their current seating arrangments. Each item in this project will allow each of my students to have the opportunity to move appropriately and limit behaviors caused by their current seating arrangments.

My Project

One area of need in my classroom is for the students to be able to move while learning. Their current seating options do not allow for them to maneuver as needed. By having multiple options for the students to choose from, their learning environment will be enhanced.

My students love working at their desks, my teacher table and the different center tables I have in the classroom.

But, each of the working areas in my classroom are limited to one seating option, which can be a hindrance to my students.

Research has shown providing flexible seating options improves students engagement, communication, and overall performance in a classroom setting. By incorporating options such as the wobble chairs and balance balls, my students will be given the opportunity to move, balance, focus, and listen during instructional time.

In addition, each seating option will also give my students a multitude of opportunities allowing them to be more successful with their behavior, social-emotional development, and overall development in my classroom!
