My Students

My school is a very diverse Title I school located in Massachusetts, a suburb west of Boston. We have students from kindergarten through grade 5. We have a large population of English Language Learners coming from a variety of backgrounds. We are a full inclusion school where all students are part of a classroom community. My 5th grade students are kind, helpful, and always encouraging one another. They love to learn new things and share new ideas with each other.

My Project

My 5th graders enjoy learning. Often they want to spread out around the classroom, get comfortable and do their best work. Right now, I only have desks and chairs. I would love to offer some alternatives for all types of learners.

These stools and cushions will allow my students the flexibility to move around the classroom and find what works for them.

The cushions will provide comfort for students who enjoy working on the floor. The wobble stools will allow students to move a little, while sitting at the table. We love to learn and need to have some flexibility to be active learners.
