My Project

Our fifth-grade students are all so unique and they want to take their learning to the next level! Our classrooms include a wide range of cultures, interests, backgrounds, personalities, academic strengths, and areas we are working on improving. We love making our classroom environments engaging and a place where all students feel comfortable.

By having flexible seating within our classrooms, we can help build those classroom environments where all students feel comfortable.

We love to learn new things every day from each other. Flexible seating will help this learning process to continue within our classrooms.
