My Project

I am seeking funding to purchase wobble stools for my 5th-grade classroom to enhance our small group learning environment. These stools will provide flexible seating options for students, allowing them to stay engaged and focused while working together, and with me, in small groups. The movement of the wobble stools helps improve concentration and energy levels, fostering a more active and productive learning space. Your support would make a big difference in creating a comfortable and effective environment for our students to thrive. Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a meaningful impact on our classroom!
