By having alternative seating, students will have their own space to spread out and room to work. Alternative seating also helps with student engagement. By having higher engagement, students will be more successful. By donating, you will help the learning environment of our classroom by giving my students more choice. Students will have the opportunity to choose to use the dorm chairs during independent work time, specifically during Reader's Workshop, as well as during group activities. Having seating options such as the bouncy bands that meets the physical needs of my students will allow for a less disruptive and a more productive day at school.

By giving the more choice, it will help empower them to make better choices and become more successful twenty-first century learners.
