Mrs. Hayes from Lavina MT is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Flexible Reading Seating

Help me give my students flexible seating options when they are independently working. These will be easy to clean and comfortable for my students to use when they are reading and working on independent work.

My Students

My students are from a small town and a small school system. They range from eighth grade to seniors in high school. The majority of my students have grown up together and are very close. They spend their spare time working with their family on ranches or in a local gas station.

They are very active in their school through sports, BPA, and National Honors Society.

They also help with sporting events. Many of the students are looking at going to college in the future. They want to succeed in school.

My Project

Having flexible seating in a classroom can help some students focus better than sitting at a desk. Students with ADHD can still wiggle without being distracting when using bungee chairs. I hope, with the help of DonorsChoose, I can provide my students with some comfort in school during this challenging time. I would like to set up an area that they can sit in to do independent work and read silently that will be comfortable enough for learning and for a moral boost. I know I feel more comfortable lounging when I read as opposed to being seated at a desk.
