My students were so excited to see that we received another set of 10 lap desks. Prior to receiving our new set, we had to find creative ways to share the first set. Now with this new set, majority of our class can learn with flexible seating. My students really enjoy the opportunity to get up out of their seats while still learning.\r\n\r\nOur other materials also brought great joy to my students. With the Flocabulary subscription renewal, they will be able to continue learning through music. The snacks have definitely helped give my student that extra boost to get them through the day.
