  • STEM in Our Classroom

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    I am so excited to share with you the success of your donation to my class. We use the materials you provided us with on a daily basis.

    There are some students who can not work sitting in a traditional seat. The wobbly seats support their needs to they can work. I use the other materials along with my paraprofessionals in small groups or one on one. The students need a great deal of support and the hands on materials you funded are exactly what they needed to stay engaged and focused. They are excited every time we use them.

    Thank you kindly for choosing our class. Your generosity has made a direct impact on each student.”

  • Readers Soar!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Please let me tell you a little about how our things have been going since you donated to our classroom.

    Some of my students are extremely behind in their reading levels and this is a pivotal year. In order to progress I need to help them

    develop a very basic foundation. I have been using the materials you provided on a daily basis one on one and in partner work with students to help close this gap. The children enjoy using them because they are new and engaging, and their enthusiasm makes a huge difference.

    Your generosity is in action every single day. We can't thank you enough for choosing us to support this year.”

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently, my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clipboards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
