Hi Parents,  I want to make sure my students have the materials they need to succeed, so I just created a request for my classroom at DonorsChoose.org:  Flexible Seating!  Give to my classroom by December 25, 2015 and your donation will be doubled thanks to Disney. Just enter the code DISNEYCREATIVITY on the payment page and you'll be matched dollar for dollar (up to $500).  If you chip in to help my students, you'll get awesome photos and our heartfelt thanks.  Thanks so much, Erica  P.S. If you know anyone who may want to help my classroom, please pass this along!
