Flex Seating While Silent Reading!

Help me give my students more options for flex seating in my room as some of my students do better in unconventional seats. We also need new books for the class library and other supplies too.

My Project

My classroom is in need of some flex seats for my students. They love to be comfortable while reading and sometimes the traditional chair doesn’t help keep them focused.

The floor pads would be a good way to keep them engaged comfortably in their books.

These will also come in handy during other learning units as well.

I want my students to enjoy coming to the resource room and to have everything they need to succeed. Setting them up for success is what my goal is, and I know these items will help me achieve that for them.
