Colorful Stools and a Rug

Help me give my students some furniture for the calm corner and small group table!

My Project

New grade- who this? I am teaching a new grade this year and I am in a new space! And my new space needs some more furniture pieces! To give you a little snapshot, I will be teaching third-grade science and social studies.

I want to ensure that I have spaces for my students to do their projects around the room as well as having varying learning spaces.

Stools and a rug might not seem like much but the rug helps bring the calm corner space together to give it a more welcoming, relaxing feel. They will be able to sit on the rug comfortably. The stools fit better at our collaborative table where students will work together on projects. Adding these few pieces of furniture to our room will help it be more functional for my students.
