My Students

Our school has always been described as a family. With that term comes the flexibility to grow and learn without fear of failure, whether you are a child or a teacher. I have always been willing to try strategies that will engage my students and allow them to achieve their best potential.

My fourth graders have a variety of needs, talents, and backgrounds, but the one thing they all need is a welcoming classroom that is specific to them.

They are active learners and thrive having the flexibility to decide where they work best and what seat works best for them. While flexible seating seems like a small part of the overall classroom environment, it is one of my students' favorite elements.

I truly believe that children are not designed to sit in a chair for long periods of time. They need recess, play, and at this age, they need to be engaging their bodies to get the best out of their brains!

My Project

My students already have stability balls, camping chairs, lap trays, floor seating, swivel chairs, and standing options for where they collaborate and concentrate best. I have paid for these materials out of pocket and have used them for many years!

These wobble stools come highly recommended and are the best, most developmentally appropriate choice to complete my classroom seating options.

I simply can not afford them on my own.

I have a class of diverse learners that will benefit from the choice of seating to fit their needs and learning styles. My class of active 4th graders and I thank you for supporting our ongoing development!
