We are using our new Tables every single day, multiple times a day. \r\n\r\nThese tables are so much more compact and have opened up more space in our room. They have allowed us to more easily do small group work, pass food while eating, and in general, interact easily while at the tables.\r\n\r\nWe have enjoyed playing with toys, doing science experiments and practicing fine motor skills all while at these tables- and bonus! our chairs fit perfectly with them. They're a great height for our smaller children to sit as well.\r\n\r\nWe can't say thank you enough- as without you, it would not have been a possibility to be able to get these tables for our classroom.

Flexible seating has had a very positive impact on my students' education.

Overall, flexible seating has created a classroom environment that feels welcoming, inclusive, and responsive to students' diverse needs and learning styles.\r\n\r\nIt has also had the chance to impress on me the kindness of my students. They share the seating quite easily and if there ever is a disagreement it is quickly resolved with a fast rock-paper-scissors game!\r\n\r\nFlexible seating has given my students the freedom to move and find comfortable positions, helping them release extra energy in appropriate ways.

The flexible seating options you helped fund—wobble stools, bouncy chairs, and other alternative seats—have been an incredible addition. One of my students, who previously struggled to stay on task during writing time, now chooses a wobble stool each day. The movement helps him stay engaged, and he's been able to complete his writing assignments with newfound confidence and focus. It's amazing what a difference the right seat can make!\r\n\r\nThe day the materials arrived was unforgettable. My students' faces lit up with surprise and excitement as they saw all the new seating choices. They eagerly explored each one, and there was a buzz of curiosity and joy as they tried out the different options. It was clear they felt seen and valued, knowing that these resources were chosen specifically to help them learn in the way that works best for them.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, my students now have a better understanding of how their learning environment affects their ability to focus and succeed. Our next steps include rotating through the various flexible seating options to figure out which ones work best for different types of activities and learners.
