No More Wobbles, Squeaks, or Broken Chair Feet! #3

My Project

Our classroom is amazing! We are constantly working to learn new things and acquire new skills.

However, our desk chairs are old, squeaky, and ill-fitted for my students.

It’s time to be out with the old and in with the new! This project is one of four that will provide a set of new chairs for my students’ daily use. We can do away with the furniture that has broken feet and wobbly legs and replace them with something more fitting for my fabulous first graders! Chairs that fit my students’ growing bodies will allow them to be more comfortable and do their best work during working time. The best part is that these have ball feet, which will be longer lasting and will impact my students for years to come! These are basic things that create an inviting atmosphere that all kids deserve. Thank you for considering helping our classroom!
