During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting on beanbags with clip boards, or sitting/laying on the floor with a clip board. \r\n They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk, now some our flexible seating choices have become more comfortable.","fullyFundedDate":1754067690804,"projectUrl":"project/rocking-around-the-classroom/9391019/","projectTitle":"Rocking Around the Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dewitt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10048458"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_77594","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":100,"numTeachers":13,"percentFrplEligible":29,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":99,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 2","studentTeacherRatio":"7.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":77594,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about North Platte Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"North Platte Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/north-platte-school-district-r1/north-platte-elementary-school/77594"}
