FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hoffman's classroom raised $491

My Students

Children need to move! I try to keep my little ones moving during the day but when they must be seated they have trouble sitting still. I would like to be able to give them the opportunity to move while they work with these great seats!

I have a class of 18 kindergartners.

They are an energetic, sweet group of children that come to me from a large variety of homes. My students come to school hungry for not only food but knowledge. They enjoy learning and love the activities we do each day.

My Project

With the seats that I am requesting my students will be able to move while they are learning and writing. It is often hard for five year olds to sit still for extended periods of time. We move frequently throughout the day but some students still have trouble sitting in seats. These seats will help all of my students be able to wiggle while they learn.

My children need to move.

This donation would help my students build their core strength while wiggling when they work. This will also enable them to focus on their work and improve in all academic areas.
