Flexible Freedom for Fantastic Fifth Graders
Funded Jan 22, 2022For our class project we increased the amount of flexible seating options within our classroom. We added a couch, wobble stools, yoga balls, and much more. Many of the students in my class feel stress on a daily basis. Flexible seating has helped them relax and enjoy school.
When I told my students we had been funded they were beyond excited. As our new seating options began to arrive at school students took great pride in helping set each thing up. The students have reported to the parents all about this project and how it is helping them perform to a higher level at school. I have had increased attendance and higher engagement since adding flexible seating to our classroom. This project has meant so much to my students. They feel like school has become a home away from home. They have reduced stress and increased effort. I would like to take this futhers by adding more seating options to the classroom. My ultimate goal would be to get rid of every hard metal chair and replace them with wobble stools.”
