My Project

My classroom was one of the first in our school to transition to flexible seating over three years ago. Since making the transition, my students have been able to show and share their new learning environment with other staff and students throughout the school.

Our seating options have been well-loved and are in need of replacement.

The items listed in this project will be used to offer additional flexible seating options to the students in my classroom. The seating options in this project will allow the students to get movement in while working. The premium floor seats with allow every student to find a spot in the classroom to work.

Our classroom is set up to be a place where students have more space to work together, discover together, and explore together, and these resources will aid in continuing to build our community for years to come.
