My Project

All that is currently available in my kindergarten classroom is desks, and our little bodies just don't work well with desks. Some students are too small for desks and they do not go low enough to fit them, some students are wiggly and need something that allows them to move more freely. By putting the students in a seating option that meets their needs this will allow the students to focus on their learning.

My goal for this project is to give every students a space that meets their needs and create positive learning environment where wiggles are expected and accepted.

I would like to use tables that will adjust to standing or sitting height for my students, lap desks to that students may sit on the floor if they wish, and the cushions for the floor or chair to make them comfortable.
