  • My Students Need to Wiggle While They Learn!

    Funded Aug 15, 2019

    Thank you so very much for your generous donations to my project. The wobble chairs and the wooden table with blue chairs have been such a valuable asset to our classroom. When the students walked in and saw our new classroom furniture, they were beyond excited! They could not believe that we had 6 brand new wobble chairs and a new table and chairs to work at!

    The wobble chairs have been so helpful during our morning meeting time, and during reading and writing mini lessons. The wobble chairs are rotated amongst the students, 6 at a time, depending on who needs them the most. They have really helped students be able to focus during direct instruction because their bodies can move and fidget, while their brains are still focused on the task.

    The wooden table and blue cushion chairs have also been incredibly beneficial to our class when we work in small group settings. The students love to come to the small table to work in small groups with each other or directly with a teacher. They have gotten so much valuable work done here and they feel so special when it is their turn to use this table.

    We cannot thank you enough for your beyond generous contributions and we will be forever appreciative. You are truly changing our students' lives!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Birdi

As a second grade teacher in Harlem, many of my students suffer from a variety of learning disabilities, attention disorders and emotional disturbances that create difficult learning environments. They often cannot sit still during an engaging math or reading lesson on the floor and they crave the ability to be able to move while also staying stationary and learning. These wobble chairs and low to the ground chairs and would be the perfect addition to my classroom. My kids are everything and they deserve more than they have be given. These flexible seating options will create a safe and hospitable learning environment. Please help us wiggle while we learn!
