My Project

I have over 100 students that come to my classroom each day. They are all unique but one thing they have in common is that they like to learn in a classroom in which they are comfortable. The flex seating would allow students the opportunity to move to a seat that is different from the traditional desk they sit in the rest of their day. The lighting would allow me to turn off the bright overhead lights that when mixed with the computer lighting often gives my students headaches. I want to be able to provide my students with a comfortable learning environment.
