My Project

My students have been enjoying and benefitting from flexible seating in the classroom for over 10 years. Through generous donations, I have been able to provide various flexible seating options for my 3rd-grade students. My classroom incorporates various types of flexible seating including wobble stools, cushions, bean bags, and bouncy ball seats.

After using the bouncy ball seats for ten years, they need to be replaced.

The bouncy ball seats are by far the students' favorite seat. They get used very hard and have been patched several times. Now, they need to be replaced with new seats.

Help me replenish the bouncy ball seats for my 3rd-grade students so they can continue their education journey with flexible seating.
