My Students

We are a small group of 12 kids. Our kids are all wonderful learners but learn in many different ways. We are a below grade level and need additional resources to succeed. We are currently working super hard on Reading, Writing and Math.

Due to the fact they they are all functioning below grade level in all these subjects, access to technology and resources would give them the chance to improve and grow as students and life long learners

Technology is an amazing tool that my students would be lucky to be able to take advantage of.

My Project

These special seats will help students transition into learning in our classroom for 2020-2021 school year.

The Lakeshore Flex-Space Balance Ball Seats will allow students to have flexible seating while practicing social distancing.

Students will also have the ability to move their seats to locations where they feel more comfortable. Flex-Space Wobble Cushions would also allow them to get some wiggles out during the school day. They are lightweight and can help students develop sense of safety within the classroom. My students with disabilities will particularly like these for their texture and calm colors. They will be a staple for our classroom.
