Flexible Seating for Success!

Funded Aug 13, 2019

I cannot thank you enough for the donations and immense support for my classroom project. The flexible seating options has opened up so many doors for my students this year and provided them with choice and opportunity. We use them every single day basically all day long. When we showed the students the chairs they couldn't wait to try them out and even started giving them their own names like "comfy chairs." The students are even becoming self aware and noticing which chairs they prefer or even if they are having difficulty at a certain point in the day and want to sit/stand somewhere specific.

When the students first were introduced to the materials they could not wait to use them and learn about them. We rotated the groups and had each group of students try out each set of seats. They evaluated all the options and gave their opinion on their favorite place to sit/stand and which one was their least favorite.

Our next steps are to continue to push choice and openness in our classroom environment and help our students learn to become self aware.

Thank you so much for this amazing donation to this classroom.”
