My Project

Having a comfortable flexible seating area for my classroom has always been a mainstay. Kids of all ages love a good beanbag moment and I have an organized way of making sure that all kids get a chance of using the area equally.

I also would love to have the conversation starter cards for those times where you have a few minutes where you just need to take a brain break with kids.

Being able to just grab a card and spend 3 to 5 minutes and not have to think about anything is a great way to stop pause and connect with my classroom community.
