My Project

Please help me to purchase clipboards and flexible seating options for my classroom. My students enjoy reading on the carpet and our two folding floor chairs. They are good at sharing the seats, but it would be great to have more seating options for the students.

I would love to purchase comfortable and appropriately sized furniture for our classroom, including bean bags, folding floor seats, and cushions for my students.

The clipboards will give the students a surface to write on when seated around the classroom. Thank you for considering my Donor's Choose project.
