  • Flexible Seating for Exceptional Students

    Funded Sep 6, 2023

    Our class just wanted to drop you a quick note to say a huge thank you for the awesome bean bags and sensory items for my class. The kids absolutely love them and they've made our learning environment so much more engaging and comfortable.

    Every day the students come in and grab a bean bag during our lessons. The pillows make a great addition to our calm corner, especially when our students are feeling upset. When our students first saw the beanbags, they were so happy!

    In addition, thank you for the Astro Bright paper. They make our materials fun and colorful!

    You rock!”

  • Flexible Seating for Exceptional Students

    Funded Nov 29, 2022

    Thank you for supporting my classroom and students! My students are loving their new donations.

    While they always have the choice to stand, the wobble chairs have been more beneficial and practical in that they can remain seated and comfortable while also providing them with a little extra movement throughout the day. By receiving a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card, I am able to provide STEM and art resources to my students. The Clorox wipes have kept us healthy during flu season.

    We appreciate your support!”

  • Basic Supplies for Exceptional Children

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you for your continued support of our classroom. As an educator, I am constantly researching ways my students can improve their learning. My students absolutely love their Wobble Stools! I have noticed they are more focused and students get out of their seats less.

    The TPT gift card has come in handy to create reading and math centers to have fun while working!

    And of course, the Lysol wipes have kept our classroom fresh and clean throughout flu season.

    Thank you for supporting my students. We appreciate you!”
