My Project

My Kk-3rd grade gifted students are always popping with great ideas and boundless energy.

Flexible seating options of wobble stools, wiggle cushions and yoga chairs will help them focus on the ideas and skills they need to develop while stimulating their need for movement and motion.

My gifted classrooms are comprised of students from diverse cultural, and economic backgrounds who are learning to work together. Having a multiple seating choices to share will also help them build important social skills needed to function in group settings. Please help me to invite and motivate my students to learn!
