Dream Seats: Pick a Spot, Set a Goal, Spark Ideas

Help me give my students flexible seating options that will support focus, creativity, and comfort in the classroom. With flexible seating like floor cushions, wobble stools, and floor seats, students are able to choose how they learn best.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romero's classroom raised $433

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Imagine a classroom where students walk in, choose the seat that fits their focus, and get ready to chase big dreams. Dream Seats: Pick a Spot, Set a Goal, Spark Big Ideas is more than a flexible seating project, it's a launchpad for motivation, confidence, and academic success. I want every student in my class to feel seen, supported, and set up for success, no matter how they learn best. Whether it's a wobble stool for energy or a cozy cushion for reading, these seating choices give students control over their learning environment and with it, the confidence to set goals and go after them. My students are bright, determined, and full of potential.

They’re learning to take ownership of their education, and flexible seating is a powerful step in helping them thrive.

These resources will turn our classroom into an inclusive space that supports all learning styles, from visual thinkers to kinesthetic movers, making every child feel empowered to participate in math lessons and succeed. With your support, we’ll create a classroom that celebrates uniqueness, fuels engagement, and sparks ideas that go far beyond the school day. We’re ready to dream big, will you help us take a seat and get started?
