My Project

I would like these bean bags for flexible seating during quiet reading time or small group instructions. Bean bags offer a cozy and inviting seating option that encourages students to feel relaxed and engaged. This comfort can make them more receptive to learning, as they are in a space that feels welcoming. Additionally, the mobility and versatility of bean bags allow students to easily rearrange their seating according to their preferences, facilitating better collaboration with their peers. The ability to shift positions comfortably promotes active learning, helping students maintain focus and reducing restlessness throughout the day.

I would like to give my students a space to sit and read during quiet reading time using these bean bag chairs.

As for the cubbies, I believe they are needed to organize the students' materials that won't fit in their desks. Cubbies play a crucial role in helping students keep their materials, such as books and supplies, organized. This organization fosters a sense of responsibility and independence among students. Furthermore, cubbies optimize classroom space by providing designated areas for personal items, which helps minimize clutter and distractions. They also enhance accessibility, allowing students to quickly reach their belongings. This ease of access supports smoother transitions between activities and contributes to overall classroom efficiency.
