Help me give my students an extra place to sit to optimize their reading comfort. They get tired of sitting in their hard one arm bandit seats. I feel this would help make them more receptive to reading.

My Project
There are many students in my class that are reluctant to read anything. I thought a combination of graphic novels and these bean bag chairs would give the students a reason to want to read if it was offered as a reward for reading.
Behavior is also a big problem.
Students always LOVE a flexible seating area. I would use these to allow students with great behavior to enjoy flexible seating. I would have a dedicated space with a soft light lamp, a plant and low playing classical music.
I would also like to use these to pull students for group work. This would be "fun" and they would look forward to working with the teacher which is something they hate to do.
