My Project

I've had flexible seating in my classroom for the last few years and have noticed a huge impact on student learning and engagement. Students do better in school when they can choose what learning option works best for them. Not all students do well sitting in a regular chair all day and need other choices to be successful. My seating, however, has been things that have been handed down to me or were purchased to keep cost down. Unfortunately, this means that the seating I have has seen better days. Stools are breaking, bean bags, flat, and we don't have enough of the alternate options to accommodate all the students that would like to use them.

Sturdier stools, cushions, and bean lap desks will help my students have plenty of seating options that will be durable and safe to use.
