My Project

This year, our school district implemented a new curriculum. A big part of the curriculum is small group time. My first grade students work in centers and part of those are working at a small group table with me.

I want to give them flexible seating options to help keep small group time fun and interesting.

Students will have the opportunity to sit on these chairs. I’m working with their teacher and our small centers. I also plan to use them as an incentive for students at their seats when we are not in small group time.

Please consider helping my students!
