My Project

My middle school science students are fun and great at working together. They work hard every day to show their love of learning but they can be hindered by traditional classroom seating options.

I want to give them flexible seating options to help increase their engagement and make our classroom feel more like home.

Helping them feel comfortable in the classroom will help increase their engagement, understanding, and application of science concepts. When students are more comfortable, they are able to use their critical thinking skills in new and impressive ways!
