• Flexible Seating for Flexible Learning

  Funded Apr 13, 2023

  My students were absolutely thrilled when they walked into the classroom and saw our new seating options! Last year, the only options were crates or sitting on the floor. Most of my students I had last year as well, so it was a big change for them. They have really been enjoying having multiple options for seating.

  I don't have assigned seating in the classroom, so all of the students have multiple opportunities every day to use a different type of seating. The wobble stools are great for my high-energy kiddos who still need to move around, even when they're sitting still. These seating options were great to add to some other new options I purchased myself. I love having so many choices for my students!”

  Funded Sep 22, 2023

  Thank you so much for helping with this project! My kiddos love math rotations so much (many of them say it is their favorite segment of our day)! So excited to maximize our learning time! My students and I so appreciate your help making our classroom a fun and engaging place to learn!”

• Kindergarten Rocks!

  Funded Oct 19, 2022

  Thank you so very much for supporting my classroom! The tools we received are making huge impact on my students'learning.

  We make so many anchor charts together on the chart paper, and having the ones with adhesive on them makes it so easy to hang them up so that my students can continue to reference them. I can even easily pull them off the wall and put them back on the easel to reference them during a lesson or even add to them. The students also really enjoy the many options we now have for math counters, and I enjoy writing story problems based on specific animals that we have matching counters for. Writing time has been really enjoyable for my students in their new journals. With space for a drawing as well as lines for writing, all of my students have been able to be successful, even those who are in the pre-writing phase.

  My students were so excited to see the new materials set up in our classroom. During our soft-start, before our day officially begins, many of them like to play with the animal math counters, which gives them a chance to explore them stress-free, so they are comfortable with them when it comes time to work.

  I am excited for my students to start writing their own story problems for their classmates to solve using the math counters.

  Again, thank you so very much for your generous help with getting these materials for my students!”
