My Project

This year I took out traditional seating in my classroom. Students have loved having the freedom to choose where and how they work around the room. I would love to bring in new options for my students!

Flexible seating can promote collaboration, enhance focus, and encourage personal choice all while accommodating diverse learning styles and needs!

Each year my student's personalities are so different so I want to have more options to hopefully meet the needs of my current students as well as my upcoming students. This year students preferred colorful stools over traditional chairs. I think the ball chairs will be a very popular options if we could add them to our collection! With those chairs, I love to see the collaboration that can be done at round tables. Clipboards allow students to get work done anywhere around the room.
