Students feel motivated to complete their work when they feel comfortable. While students currently have some choice for where they sit as they can use clipboards or one of the two classroom carpets, they have to sit on the floor. Our library is not the most comfortable space and while there is some flexible seating available, there is not enough for each student. Students feel empowered when presented with choice, engaged when comfortable and ready to work when they can sit away from distractions. To grow and learn throughout the year, starting the year strong is the first step. Help brighten our year from the start by support our project!
