My Students

I have a class full of energetic first graders! They enjoy being active and moving around the classroom to learn.

My students could really benefit from more seating options to help them be engaged and focused during the day.

It is hard for most of them to stay engaged while sitting in a hard, uncomfortable chair all day. They tend to get fidgety and restless. I would love to have flexible seating options in my classroom to help my students be more comfortable while they are learning.

My Project

My students come to school energetic and ready to learn! They try hard each day to be engaged, but some struggle to stay focused while sitting in uncomfortable chairs. Each student could benefit from more seating options to be more engaged in learning.

I'm wishing for one wobble chair to go with the 5 I currently have and some portable lap desks which seem to be a popular seating option!

This project would really help my energetic students to stay engaged throughout the day with their table mates and partners. I want them to be comfortable and at home in our classroom, even more than they already are!

I cannot wait to see the difference flexible seating makes in my classroom!
