It has helped in the classroom. \r\n\r\nThe gray rug chairs are a great asset to the classroom. We do a student of the week every two weeks so I have been able to allow each student of the week to get a month on a chair since I got two. Students have been really excited to be able to use the seats for their learning. I let them come to the rug during lessons to use a clipboard. They have this choice instead of always sitting at their desk. When we do flexible seating around the room they also have the option to use the chair as well. \r\n\r\nThe chair strap has been great to use with children that need to move their legs. Students like to put their legs on top and bounce their legs up and down. It allows them to get some movement out and still get their work done.","fullyFundedDate":1771448348550,"projectUrl":"project/making-choices/9853048/","projectTitle":"Making Choices","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fontaine","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10327074_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1761213634206","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10327074"},{"teacherId":10327074,"projectId":9859634,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for my flexible seating. It has helped in the classroom. \r\n\r\nThe wobble seat has been very popular. We came up with a solution to ensure everyone gets a turn. We rotate the seat daily. Each day a new student is able to use it all day. Then I pull another stick for someone new to get it another day. The seat has been a great resource for students that need a movement outlet. They are being more successful completing work and using the seat to move their body. I am definitely going to ask for more in another campaign!\r\n\r\nThe padded texture bubble seats have been great too. Some of my students sit on them to be able to move. Some like to put them on their lap and rub the texture to calm their mind. I have been switching the 6 seats weekly between my 2 classes.
