I teach excited sixth graders math in an economically disadvantaged middle school. Over 60% of students come from low-income families. Like most sixth graders, my students enjoy being active and engaging in hands-on learning!
I am dedicated to providing a student-centered environment for success for my students!
Having your support in creating our learning environment means I am able to do even more for my students! Thanks to my generous donors, I've been able to make some amazing changes that have allowed my students to enjoy learning! We are helping my students develop a love of learning that will last a lifetime!
My Project
We currently have a set of wobble stools at the work table where I pull students to work with. My students all love the stools so much we need two more to create a table group with wobble stools instead of chairs!
My students have shown so much responsible decision making and focus with flexible seating!
In order to be able to stay in their preferred seat I require my students to make responsible choices and be successful. They enjoy being able to move around on their stools so much that they are determined to do what it takes to stay there! The wobble stools have been especially beneficial for some students with special needs. The ability to move while staying in their spot has been wonderful for them! I am so excited to be able to offer this seating choice to even more of my students! They will be thrilled!
