My Project

My students would greatly benefit from the addition of cozy, flexible seating options like the Lakeshore Flex-Space Teardrop Bean Bag Chairs and comfy seat cushions. During our small group read-alouds, these seating options will provide a comfortable and supportive environment, helping my young learners feel more relaxed and engaged. With their high backs and body-contouring design, the bean bags are perfect for fostering a sense of security and focus, while the adjustable seat cushions offer versatility for various classroom activities. By creating a welcoming space for reading, these seats will encourage my students to actively participate, stay attentive, and develop a lifelong love for books and learning.
