Be Relaxed While Learning!
Funded Mar 27, 2018
My fourth and fifth graders loved their new seating choices. Every morning they were eager to start working because they knew they would choose a new spot. They enjoyed sitting on the yoga ball, the bean bag, the stools, and the rocking chair. Students were engaged and made a lot of improvements with study habits and behavior.
When the packages started arriving my "children" couldn't believe it. It was like Christmas in April. While we opened the packages, I could see their little faces wondering what new seating option had arrived. We had celebrations after celebrations. My students enjoyed their seats and made smart learning choices.
I will continue to use flexible seating options in order to allow children to explore and choose what works for them. I plan on adding more options in the future. Thank you for your donation!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. M.
This classroom project was brought to life by Ripple and 2 other donors.

I am requesting different seating options so that my scholars can be relaxed. The seating choices will allow them to be comfortable and motivated. This can be done quickly by choosing a new seat that's low to the ground, on a bean bag, a tall stool, or just standing. My scholars need different seating choices in order to be engaged, burn calories, and have a better oxygen flow to the brain. Flexible seating is fun! It also promotes: collaboration-easily pair-up; community-share space and supplies; movement-burn energy; choice-choose where they work and with whom; and sensory input-stimulates students sense of touch.
