My Project

I want my first graders to feel empowered and accountable for their learning. Flexible seating options will help them do that. The table will give students a flexible seating option that allows them to feel engaged and motivated to learn.

I want all of my students to feel like they can do their best learning in our classroom.

The cubbies will help my students stay organized as we transition away from traditional desks towards a classroom with more seating options. Classroom organization is crucial for keeping students on task and feel calm and safe in the classroom. I want to create a community of engage, happy learners!
