Balance, Bounce and Become a Better Listener

Funded Oct 29, 2016

My project – Balance, Bounce and Become a Better Listener was funded and four big boxes were delivered into the classroom. As a Special Education teacher of early grades I continually search for the resources to meet my students' special needs. My goal is to create the learning environment that is accommodating and inviting for my students. The Ball Chairs has become great assets for our classroom. Children are using the chairs and are showing the ability to organize their bodies, focus and listen and as a result we have seen a progress in their academic achievements.

I will never forget when huge boxes arrived in the classroom. The children were so excited and couldn't wait to see what was inside. They helped me to open them and we pumped up the balls. As the chairs were assembled, the children took turns to learn how to use them. Soon, the Bouncy Chairs have become absolute favorites during both - large and small group instructions, as well as during the independent work time.

My next project is to ask DonorsChoose.org to help my classroom with essential school supplies, such as dry erase markers, construction paper, copy paper, art supplies, paint, CD player, etc.

We greatly appreciate your donations and hope for your continued support.”
