Funded Nov 27, 2018I would like to reach out and thank you all again for your generous donations to our classroom. My students' reactions to the tools were priceless They are ecstatic about our new tools and are eager to use them each day. After the first week of using the stability cushions and surf desks, I had a student tell me just how much he liked them and ask, "how much did each person have to donate to us to get these cool things?" I explained that you all chose to generously donate your money in support of him and classmates and he was remarkably inspired. He even offered to bring in money he has earned to "repay the donors!" It was such a heartwarming moment as a teacher.
Several students have the bouncy bands on their desks and they have truly made an impact in their classroom performance. The surf desks have also been a huge success and students are always rushing to claim one. These desks have provided more flexibility and freedom than I ever imagined! In addition to students using these during small group instruction, they have also allowed students to move their seat to the front during whole group instruction to complete notes on days they forget their glasses. Last, the sensory canoe has been a huge hit and is always the desired incentive now!
I am so appreciative of your donations and support, it would not have been possible without your generosity!”

Active Body, Active Mind!
Funded Aug 15, 2017I would like to reach out and thank you all again for your generous donations to our classroom. My students are ecstatic about their new "wobble stools" and are eager each day to use them. I was so excited the Thursday they were delivered just because I knew how excited my students would be seeing them for the first time. I will never forget their priceless reactions as they walked into the room and saw them for the first time!
These stools have been extremely beneficial in our classroom. Prior to receiving these stools, students who were pulled to the back table for extra help often seemed embarrassed to be sitting at the back table. Now, I have children rushing and eager to sit at the table simply because they have experienced how amazing these stools are and love the freedom they provide.
In the future, I hope to create another project to provide all students within the classroom a wobble seat to utilize at their desks. We are so appreciative of your donations and support, it would not have been possible without your generosity!”
