My Project

My first graders are full of energy, curiosity, and a love for learning. They are eager to explore new ideas and face challenges with excitement. What makes them so special is their enthusiasm for discovery and their strong sense of community.

This project will provide flexible seating options like wobble stools and bean bags and lap desks, allowing my students to choose their learning spot.

These seating choices will help them stay comfortable, focus better, and engage with their peers in group activities.

Flexible seating isn’t just about comfort—it’s about giving my students the tools they need to succeed. Some students need to move to stay focused, while others thrive in a cozy corner to concentrate. This variety of seating will help them stay engaged, work together, and develop a sense of responsibility for their learning environment.

My goal is to create a classroom where every child feels empowered to learn at their best. With your help, I can provide a space where my students can take ownership of their learning, collaborate with others, and feel comfortable as they grow academically and socially.

Thank you for supporting this project and making it possible for my students to thrive in a flexible, engaging, and supportive classroom!
