My Project

Research has proven that alternative seating to traditional classroom desks benefits the mental capacity to achieve in the classroom. My students deserve options in their learning environment.

Having a variety of seating styles to add to what we already have will entice learners in my classroom to do their work.

Since Covid 2020, gaining back the work ethic of students to 100% has been a slow process. Adding enticements to our classroom routine and curriculum is a good motivation for students to put forth the effort that they are capable of giving.

Students need motivation to get back to pre-Covid academic determination. These alternative seating styles will help to do just that.
