My young students will move around on the wiggle chairs to help them get their energy out and re-focus on learning. I have no chairs at our small group table and want to make sure our seating is conducive to learning. We currently have no seating in our reading nook. I am trying to foster a love and excitement of reading, and I know a unique, comfy seating area will make students more excited to pick up a book and read. Thank you very much for your support!
