Help me give my students some flexible sitting in the classroom and I need another bookshelf because I still have more books I am getting and need more shelves to put them.

My Project
Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in my room such as: at different tables, on the floor using short tables or in bean bags with clip boards. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work.
I have received tons of books over the last year from donations and I run out of room on my current shelves.
Keeping these donated books organized will make it easier for my students to access them and know where to place them back so others can enjoy them.
