My Project

I have entered a new classroom this year and there is little furniture and materials that allow my students to have flexible seating and organization. The chairs, bulletin boards, storage boxes and bins, easel board, and trays will all provide my new students with some flexible seating and organization which will allow learning to be successful. Flexible seating allows students to learn in an environment that they are comfortable in, while currently, the only option they have are the hard plastic chairs. Organization provides a good classroom environment for everyone and helps to keep the classroom clean and enjoyable. Students should be in an environment made just for them and feels like a second home as they spend more time at school than at home.
