Mrs. Pickett from Thurmont MD is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Comfortable Learning Environment

Help me give my students a comfortable learning environment while social distancing in my classroom. This will give them the opportunity to have alternate seating and flexibility in how they learn.

My Students

Hello Everyone,

My classroom is a very unique one based on the circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic.

My classroom has a small group of students that have met criteria for in person learning. My classroom has kindergarten students from different classrooms. The students love to learn and are very excited to be back into the classroom. Many of the students have special needs or need intense academic support.

My Project

The comfortable seating will help my students have the ability to learn in an alternate location other than their seat or the floor. Many of my students have special learning needs and need movement and comfort to learn. My students also enjoy the opportunity to have choices in how they learn. Giving them seating options will make learning more enjoyable. My students are learning in person and need to social distance while in the classroom. These comfortable seats will give them a defined space to learn and stay safe at the same time.
