  • Feet-First Focus!

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    We cannot thank you enough for contributing to our classroom. The day they came in, the students could not get their desks set up quickly enough. They were all elated. I've even heard them mention that they wished other classrooms had them.

    I have already noticed an improvement with many students. Even students who may not have stood out to me before as being anxious or having extra energy are using the Bouncy Bands daily to help them stay calm and focused. Your function truly is making an impact in my classroom. Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Leger

  • Keep Calm and Get Your Math On

    Funded Nov 4, 2021

    Thank you so much for your generosity in contributing to my classroom project. The students were immediately excited to find them on their desks. I noticed a difference in their focus levels on day one. Students who usually do a lot of fidgeting in their seats or who shake their legs when they are trying to work did a lot less fidgeting and shaking. I also noticed increased participation from these same students since they had a way to channel their nervous energy and could focus more on the problems at hand. I had to do a lot less redirecting in class and was able to focus more on one-on-one time with my students. These have been such a great addition to our classroom.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Leger

Many students often struggle with maintaining focus in a large class setting. In math, this can often result in students missing critical information needed to help them understand the lesson. By giving students a discreet way to channel their energy or anxiety, this will not only help them focus more on the material being taught and help alleviate math text anxiety, but will also help them do it in a way that does not cause a distraction to other students. Math test anxiety is a growing problem among middle school math students. By minimizing their anxiety and increasing their focus on the math, students can then see positive results on their assessments and in their everyday class performance, thus increasing self-esteem and potentially eliminating fear that often comes with math class due to math anxiety.
