Along with their own \"office\" space they are productive and able to focus on the task. From test taking to independent work the seats and desk cubicles are helped improve focus and independence. We have a system in place so they can be used during independent reading too. In this setting it helps to build stamina!\r\n\r\nMost often it is used during small group work. But I will say when our 5th grade buddies come in to our classroom to read, these seating balls are a hot commodity! \r\n\r\nThank you!","fullyFundedDate":1733249961416,"projectUrl":"project/i-just-need-a-little-space/8972617/","projectTitle":"I Just Need a Little Space!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Miller","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7517495"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_62784","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":445,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":26,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":87,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.8,"schoolId":62784,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Martinson Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Martinson Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/marshfield-public-school-district/martinson-elementary-school/62784"}
