  • Off to a Great Start

    Funded Aug 14, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generous contribution to our classroom. My students and I have really enjoyed using the items in our daily activities. The pencils, seats, and other items have made a difference in our learning experiences. Our class enjoys receiving all the incentive items around the classroom. We are truly grateful for your donation to our fifth grade classroom.

    We look forward to using the seats and seat cushions daily around our classroom. They definitely enhance our reading time.”

  • Set Up for Success

    Funded Sep 23, 2021

    My students were beyond grateful when all of our items arrived in our classroom. They loved the books, exercise balls, incentive cards, reward items, headphones, and supplies.

    All of my fifth graders have benefited from the materials. They were definitely a blessing to our class. Students are able to focus on their learning and do not need to worry about supplies. They also love their incentive cards and earning the items in our Positive Behavior drawer.

    Thank you so much for contributing to our classroom this year. We appreciate your generosity.”

  • Flexible Seating and Classroom Supplies for Successful Students

    Funded Sep 12, 2019

    My students are able to utilize our wooble seats and hammocks during flexible seating time. They love being able to have more options on seating in our classroom. Each student loves having their own earbuds to use during computer times. Sharpened pencils are a wonderful convenience for our students and saves on valuable learning time.

    The reaction of my students was priceless. They were cheering when the custodial engineer delivered all the boxes to our classroom. Their smiles were amazing. The smiles continue when they are able to choose our new resources during independent work times.

    We would love to add more flexible seating options to our classroom. Also, it would be beneficial to add organizational materials to enhance learning time and develop responsible life skills.”

  • Flexibility and Fun!

    Funded Aug 24, 2018

    Thank you so much for donating to my project. Your generosity is very much appreciated!

    My students use exercise ball chairs, cushions, wiggle seats, and stools daily. They are excited to arrive each day to select their seating. Each student is motivated to get started on their independent work because of the flex seating choices.

    The day the items arrived in our classroom was wonderful. My students' smiling faces and excitement in their voices was beyond my expectations. I knew they would love the items, but I did not realize how much!

    We will continue to use the donate items on a daily basis. My entire classroom environment has been changed because of your thoughtfulness.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. McQuinn

Flexible seating arrangements have proven to be very useful with students in my school. The flex seating will definitely benefit the students in my classroom. Exercise balls, cushions, wiggle seats, stools, and fidget bands will give many options for my students to help them focus during class. These choices will meet their movement needs. I am excited for my students to be allowed numerous seating choices during instruction, rotations, group times, and independent work times. My goal is to improve success on assignments, positive behaviors, and overall focus. My students and I will appreciate any assistance given to meet our classroom goals.
