My Project

Flexible and alternative seating has assisted them in focus and work production. They have explored a variety of seating options, floor, low and high stools, traditional chairs, camping chairs, yoga balls, and pillows to name a few and they choose wisely and we have seen positive effects.

However, sixth graders are still maturing, have a lot of energy, and sometimes body awareness is not at its best so options wear out and have even broken.

Help our classroom have replacement options (stadium seats, wooden stools, wobble stools) as we continue to teach them academics and personal responsibility.
