Many of my students have different needs. This will help them to feel comfortable in the classroom. The optional seating is great for my students because they will be able to focus more on what they are learning and less on how they don't feel comfortable. The classroom currently has stools, which can become uncomfortable during the long class periods. The bean bag chairs help students who are feeling restless. The ball chairs are supportive for students, while maintaining the height needed for students to work at tables. These kids deserve to have the classroom be a place they feel comfortable and I believe these chairs would help with that.
