My Project

My students independently read everyday and love sitting around the room to read and really dive into their book. The kids sit in the same chairs all day and would love to have some comfy seats to relax in while reading their books or completing independent work.

Please help me give my kids seating options to get them moving throughout the day and fully focused in their work.

Having this flexible seating options would help give my kids a choice to sit in a seat that will help them concentrate and learn better.
