We All Have the Ability to Learn and Succeed

Help me give my students flexible seating so they can move a bit while learning and dry erase boards/markers so they can show what they know in a quick, not-on-the-spot way, thank you!

My Project

Everyone learns in a different way. I have the sweetest, most hardworking students who want to succeed but need extra help and understanding. Most of my students recognize their learning struggles and are afraid to share their answer in front of the class. I like to use personal white boards OFTEN to gauge each student’s learning in a non-threatening way. Also, a few of my students need extra movement while they learn. Seat cushions and wobbly stools will help them safely move and still continue to work in class. THANK YOU from all of us!

Mrs. Parker PS 256Q @ PS 253Q Grades 3-5
