Cozy Learning Atmosphere

Help me give my students an alternative seating options in my classroom. I believe that these additions could significantly benefit my students and their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Faucette's classroom raised $732

My Project

This upcoming school year, I would like to move away from traditional seating. For the past three years, I have followed the traditional model. After observing teachers with alternative seating in their classroom, I’ve noticed students appear to be more relaxed and ready to learn.

Accordingly to research it can positively impact their learning experiences and overall well-being.

Alternative seating can help decrease restlessness and fidgeting, especially among young children, resulting in improved classroom management. I would like to provide a classroom environment that feels cozy and welcoming to all of my students.
