My Project

In my classroom, collaboration, engagement, and interaction are key to a successful learning environment. However, traditional seating often limits my students' ability to move freely, engage in dynamic discussions, and maintain visual access to their peers during lessons.

Swivel chairs will enhance the learning experience by giving students the freedom to easily shift their focus from the front of the room to their classmates, making group discussions and peer interactions smoother and more effective.

This flexibility helps students collaborate more naturally and fosters an interactive learning environment where they feel comfortable sharing ideas.

Additionally, having students who are Deaf and only receive language by watching the speaker means they need to be able to move during lessons. Swivel chairs provide a more adaptive seating arrangement for different learning styles, promoting active learning and collaboration.

By funding this project, you will be helping to create a more inclusive, dynamic, and engaging classroom that supports both individual focus and group collaboration. With your support, my students will not only benefit academically but also gain the skills to communicate effectively and engage with their peers, preparing them for success in the classroom and beyond.
