My Project

As a third grade inclusion teacher my class has many students with many different needs. One need is being sure that each child is comfortable so they can do their best to succeed in my classroom.

As a teacher one of my goals is to be sure that I have a setting conducive to all my learners.

Flexible seating is one option that a teacher should consider when setting up her learning space with items such as Kore Pre-Teen Active Chairs and adjustable stools. I hope that I can provide my students with a comfortable environment so they can learn to the best of their abilities.
