  • Flexible Seating

    Funded Apr 6, 2019

    Thank you so much for your donation. On the very first day we received the flexible seating the students were over joyed. We had set up a system for using the yoga balls during reading in order to make sure every student had an opportunity to use it. Once our system was in place we slowly noticed our most reluctant readers wanted to read on a flexible seat! One student that benefitted from the flexible seating has difficulty staying focused. This particular student was able to do his classwork while sitting on the ball. We never witnessed him so focused completing his classwork! We are so grateful for the donation! This flexible seating donation not only impacted the lives of this class but it will continue to impact the lives of this years class as well!”

This rug will be used many times throughout the school day. My second students sit on the rug for whole group instruction and while working in pairs. They also enjoy reading silently and with a buddy on the rug. Currently our "ready-to-retire" rug is at least ten years old. We need an update! This donation of new rug will help create a clean and inviting learning environment for my second graders. This particular classroom rug has individual squares for students to sit on. By assigning a space for each student I can keep the day running smoothly and save learning time!
