My Project

My students are some of the most unique and creative students. They focus best in a structured, but relaxed environment. The couch and chairs would provide seating for students during whole group lessons. Many students struggle to focus when made to sit on the floor. These couches and chairs would provide seating that allows them to sit in a more comfortable manner, while still being structured enough to not be a distraction to themselves and others. The couches would benefit kids that need collaboration. The chair would benefit students that need more space, while still being included in the lessons.
