Flex Seating

Help me give my students flexible seating for their wiggly little bodies. They would love the opportunity to have a choice to sit in a space that makes them feel comfortable and able to do their best.

My Project

My kindergartners are some of the brightest and most hilarious little human beings. They deserve a space that meets their needs and has options for them to do their best work and participate in daily learning. Their wiggly little bodies like to stand up, tap in their chairs, and some even like to be on the floor. I’d like to provide the option of flex seating for my students in order for them to be the best students they can be. With your help, my kindergartens can finally have a space that offers options and choices that they can make to be their best.
