My Students

My students are creative, eclectic and full of questions! They love hands-on, active, thought provoking projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box and solve problems. They are darling, and come to school each day ready to learn.

My Project

Currently, my students are sitting on very old, hard chairs. They stand up and complain about being uncomfortable during the day.

Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them, and allowing them to engage in learning.

The comfy seats will allow for more learning to occur. They are lightweight and can be easily used in all areas of the classroom.

I have seen how sitting in uncomfortable seating can cause students to disengage and hope to help them feel comfortable and ready to learn and grow together.
