My Project

This project will purchase flexible learning seating for my sweet, diverse classroom. They are asking for floor cushions so they can choose their seating during tests, independent work, and quiet reading time. They also have laptops they love working on, and many students enjoy being able to get away from their desk to do computer work.

This project also requests 5 bean bag chairs - these would also be used for flexible seating in our library area during morning meetings, end of day meetings, read alouds and library silent reading time.

These items will help students feel more comfortable in class. Students deserve to feel like they have choices about where and how to complete their work which fosters independence, fuels creativity, and imparts a level of respect towards students to make good choices about how to manage their bodies and time in class.

Flexible seating options also allow students to have some space or quiet away from table groups during the day, and we have several kids with disabilities that need options for more personal space in the class.

Finally, we are an inclusive class with special needs students during large parts of the day who have physical challenges. Being able to offer these kids especially a cozy place to sit where they can engage with peers but be comfortable, too, would be amazing.

Thank you for considering this project - the students would use these items throughout the day, and the tools would be passed on to the class next year as well, encouraging that your investment is a long-term one that will delight hundreds of students in time. Thank you!
