My Project

Students need to have options for where to work in the classroom. Many of my students enjoy working on the floor, in places where they can move, or in groups with other people. Some of my students with special needs (ADHD, learning disabilities) will benefit from these new seating options.

These flexible seating options will allow students more choice in where they want to work and be productive and learn.

I have wobble stool in my classroom currently, but these other options will allow new venues for students to choose. The lap desks give a hard surface to work on, and the cushy stools will be a great option at my small group table. I can't wait to see how productive my students will be with new places to work around the classroom!
