  • Help! We're Fidgeting Out!

    Funded Oct 1, 2021

    As my scholars become more and more independent readers, I am noticing their joy for fun text with characters that look like them. The books each donor from Donors Choose helped to supply have been great additions to our classroom library, and are used by my scholars for a relaxing read or relaxing picture walk. Thank you for your generous donations. We are also utilizing the organization bins for centers so that the students each have easy access to the items they need. The flexible pencils and finger fidgets are also great for my scholars who have a difficult time sitting still during independent instruction. These hand fidgets are something they use while working that luckily isn't distracting to other scholars. Your generosity to help fund this project has allowed my scholars to minimize their "Fidgeting Out".”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Donelson

    This classroom project was brought to life by DonorsChoose Community Hurricane Ida Support and 6 other donors.
Many of my scholars find it difficult to sit at their desk for long periods of time without doing something with their hands. In many cases, this leads them to beating on desk with pencils, their hands, or any other object they can find laying close enough to grab. With fidget devices, they can better their focus and concentration in a productive way without causing disruption to instruction or their classmates. The trays will be used to keep their supplies in when they are not using them. This will decrease the likelihood they end up on the floor or are constantly rolling on the desk from having nowhere to place them. The storybooks are to provide the scholars with choices for both boys and girls that promotes self positivity and individuality. I know that these items will be put to great use by my scholars in helping to foster an effective and positive learning environment.
