Ms. Fulton from Desloge MO is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Take a Break Somewhere Comfortable

Help me give my students a rug for a calming corner with comfortable seating and calming lights. This will help my students have a comfortable place to go and relax when they need it.

My Project

I am working on adding to my calming corner in my special education classroom. The rug will make it a comfortable spot to go stretch out if needed or take a break on the bean bag chair.

The lights will add to the effect by being able to dim the lights and add some calming color to the room.

When a student needs to take a break or have a few minutes to calm down, they will have a comfortable place to go.

They will also benefit from this by having flexible seating.
