My Project

Independent reading time is a joyful time. My students love to read and relax during our independent reading block.

Reading in a plastic chair does not bring joy.

Students need to be comfortable while they read. These folding chairs can be easily moved, folded, and opened so that students can move them to whatever location works best at the time.

These are also great chairs for collaborative group discussions during book clubs, writing groups, and project-based learning.

Best of all, these chairs can be folded away for easy storage when not in use. Thank you in advance for bringing these supplies into my classroom.
