My Project

We are excited to have our classroom filled with various ways for students to curl up, get comfy and learn in a way that works for them! We want a warm and comfortable classroom environment, where kids feel they can ask questions, work in partnerships and learn all day long!

Flex seating gives students autonomy over their seating choice.

Giving our students the chance to seat in a bean bag, work with a friend on the bench or use a wobble stool to move their body will help kids concentrate longer.
