Make a donation Ms. Kapustensky can use on her next classroom project.
I am asking for a donation of 28 exercise balls to replace the chairs in my classroom. Do you like to sit in a chair all day long? My students don’t either. Kids need to move more than adults! Our brains actually grow more, the more active we are. The human body is designed to walk around 12 miles a day! I Teach 3 math blocks of twenty-five to thirty 5th graders who need to move but also sit still at the same time (you try doing that successfully).
This project will reach roughly 90 students because of my three classes. Plus, what’s cooler than sitting on a gigantic bouncy ball while you do math?? Make math fun again!
