My Project

Please help me create a cozy and fun classroom for my upcoming class. I have to change classrooms again this coming school year and would love to make this new space unique.

Students love finding a comfortable seat inside the classroom to learn.

The standard table and chairs are still our main use, but having alternative seating for students is really rewarding. Studies have shown that flexible seating can help to motivate students by making the classroom environment more stimulating and interesting. In result, can improve their focus and concentration.

Ms. Wilkinson will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by November 21.
