My Project

My students are energetic, curious learners who thrive in an environment that supports movement, comfort, and choice. Traditional desks and chairs don’t always meet their needs, especially when we’re working in small groups or during independent learning time.

These tools will help students self-regulate, stay on task, and feel comfortable while learning.

Flexible seating empowers them to make choices about how they learn best, whether they’re collaborating, reading independently, or working on comprehension and phonics in their groups.

Our daily rotations include small groups, comprehension tasks, and independent work. With flexible seating, students can remain engaged and supported, even when focus or stamina is a challenge.
