Flexible Seating(stools)for 3rd Grade English Language Learners

Help me give my students stools as flexible seating when we sit at the table in our small group.

My Project

These stools will allow for more students in our small group (I take several a day) to sit together at the table. Our district-provided chairs are large and bulky and don't allow for all students to sit at the table.

My English Language Learners are such hard-working children and deserve the best!

My ELLs will receive better direct and explicit teaching when they can sit closer. This will help them to become better listeners, speakers, readers, and writers of the English Language.

I love my ELLs. They are hard-working and sometimes need one-to-one help within proximity of the teacher. We often share materials and work together in pairs. These students are anxious to learn English, improve their academics, and become productive citizens of the U.S.
