Flexible Seating to Engage Active Learners
Funded May 10, 2018I am so thankful for your help funding my flexible seating. This has changed the dynamic of my classroom! Students are allowed to choose a seat daily that they learn best in therefore taking ownership of their learning. They are focused and more calm in the classroom. When they first came into our classroom and saw the variety of seating options their faces lit up and they knew they were in for something unique. Looking forward, I would love to have flexible seating for every student in my classroom if they choose. I lack about 4 wobble stools and 4 ball chairs and would love the opportunity to get that funded soon. Thank you again for supporting my classroom!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Keith

Funded Jul 14, 2015Thank you so much for donating to my classroom project. You were able to help fund my classroom to have a new Elmo Visual Presenter and a Wireless Pen Tablet. We use the Elmo Visual Presenter every day in my classroom. This document camera allows the students to see images and manipulatives up close and in detail. I am able to model math problems, handwriting, and shared reading. Students are able to use cooperative learning to teach each other skills they have learned.
We also received a Wireless Pen Tablet. This tablet connects to my Elmo and the Smartboard so I am able to walk around and write on the tablet without being confined to my desk. This has greatly improved classroom management and helps keep my students engage and promotes active learning. Student are excited to use our "magic pen" during lessons.
In the future I plan to use the Elmo Visual Presenter to make classroom projects. It has video capability and I am excited to use this specific feature soon. Thank you so much for donating to my classroom and helping to provide the tools we need to succeed!”
