The students have been very excited in the classroom since they arrived. Everyone wanted to use the chairs immediately. I have a few students who can not stay in their seat or they stand up and distract others. I gave the wobbly chairs to a few of my students that needed extra support remain in their seat. It has worked wonders for those students. They have sat in chairs and were able to concentrate on their work while sitting in the chair. It has allowed those students to remain in their seats and caused less distractions.\r\n\r\nI also am using them in my small group table. This has allowed my students to stay engaged and find small group time more exciting because of the chairs. There is more concentration and less boredom when in group because of the wobbly chairs. I also had floor chairs. Those floor chairs have worked as calm down chairs and independent work time chairs. These chairs provide a workspace that is not just at their desks. They can move away from distractions to work or calm down.","fullyFundedDate":1699546609031,"projectUrl":"project/flex-our-way-to-learning/7590344/","projectTitle":"Flex Our Way to Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Brown","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2417062_orig.jpg?crop=4301,4301,x0,y372&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1690768821211","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2417062"},{"teacherId":7349723,"projectId":9934288,"letterContent":"My students and I are very grateful for the crayons, pencils, electric pencil sharpener and counting bowls.

The counting bowls are a big hit as before you all gave them to us, I had to put the manipulative in baggies which was hard to always do. Thank yo so much for all of your help and support.

The individualized audio support available through the computers, now delivered clearly through the headphones, is tremendously helping them with comprehension and language acquisition.
