  • Comfy, Cozy, Crafty Seating!

    Funded Apr 2, 2021

    Thank you so much for donating to the students at Riverside School for Makers and Artists. These flexible seating options were first ordered for my kindergarten students and are now being used by me 5th graders! 5 year olds and 5th graders alike love, love, love them.

    Last school year was bizarre at best! My kindergarteners started on a rotating schedule. We only saw each other 2-3 days a week at best. Starting at the end of October, I had to begin working remotely, then the entire DOE shut down. The year was tricky at best. Luckily we all came back together in January, five days a week...which was incredible. Kindergartners loved to have these options for seating and still come by to visit and rest and relax in them.

    Now, I have twice as many students and they are twice the age! Having these options for flexible seating has been wonderful. Not only do they add a fun pop of color to our room, but they also give a comfortable option for students move around and work with a friend.

    Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity!!!!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Siani

    This classroom project was brought to life by Stahl Family Fund and 3 other donors.
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, or sitting or laying on the floor. Due to social distancing and COVID restrictions - the students need safe spaces that are comfortable and easily cleaned. 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.
