  • Flexible Seating Storage

    Funded Nov 2, 2019

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! Our students were so excited when they entered the room and saw the beautiful new setup! One of the students even cried.

    We implemented a routine where the students get to pick their seat at the beginning of each week and they love the independence and responsibility! They choose a seat based on where they are most comfortable, where they learn best, and who they want to be near. We have definitely seen an increase in focus and stamina since setting up our new classroom. It also has given us so much more space so that we can have two full meeting areas for parallel teaching opportunities. Words cannot thank you enough!

    The only problem with our new tables was the fact that the students didn't have a desk to store their materials. With these cubbies and bins the students have a nice organized space for their materials!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Formont and Mrs. Caiazzo

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work. This is why I a requesting these round tables and chairs. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
