My Project

Flexible seating is essential in today's classrooms. Children need to be comfortable in order to maintain focus and engagement in lessons. Students also enjoy having the opportunity to choose where they sit and complete their work. This gives students the independence they crave.

Flexible seating is especially important for students who are Deaf and/or hard of hearing.

My students have to work so hard on listening to the lesson that they often exhaust themselves. This flexible seating will provide them an opportunity to move around and be more comfortable throughout the day.
