The excitement on their faces the day they got delivered was incredible, and I'm so glad I was given the opportunity to do this. We now have added the beanbag flexible seating option into our rotation, and students randomly get selected everyday to choose what option they'd like to pick for the day.\r\n\r\nThey love to share and will sit and read together on the beanbags, and it's just so fun to have the option of them in our room. They're great, and can easily be wiped down, and moved around the room for even more flexibility. \r\n\r\nThe airheads for the rock cycle were unfortunately unavailable when the project was funded but I was able to get jolly ranchers and skittles as part of their Halloween treats instead which was amazing and enjoyed by all as well!\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting my classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1727879501785,"projectUrl":"project/enhancing-learning-with-flexible-seating/8794661/","projectTitle":"Enhancing Learning With Flexible Seating & Hands-On Science","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Qureshi","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9068967_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1686601828916","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9068967"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_26673","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":456,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":17,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":75,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":77.8,"schoolId":26673,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fullerton Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Fullerton Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/addison-school-district-4/fullerton-elementary-school/26673"}
