My Project

Many of our students are in temporary housing, living with multiple family members, or in small quarters. With more and more students coming from other countries, I need to make sure they feel safe and comfortable in our classroom.

It is important to me that my classroom is a home away from home for all of my students, and giving them comfortable bean bag chairs, floor cushions and other seating is one way for me to do that for them.

By giving my students choice seating, this will give them the opportunity to be their best selves and create their best ideas.
