Flexible Seating Fun

Help me give my students HOME BI Laptop Tables so they can sit around the room and comfortably do their work. We are also requesting new whiteboards, as ours are getting old and are hard to write on.

My Students

This year, I feel very lucky to be working with some amazing kiddos. They are so eager and willing to learn, and enjoy living in our wonderful community.

My students are active learners who love sitting around the room, having the lights low, and learning in a warm and comfortable environment.

They appreciate the home-like feel that I provide in my classroom, and we would appreciate these supplies to add to our home away from home. Our school is very fortunate to have what we do, but I'm constantly pushing for more for my students because I believe with the resources we need, we can do amazing things!

My Project

How much do you enjoy sitting in a chair at a desk all day? I know I hate it, and I have noticed that my students do too! That's why we're asking for your help. My students love sitting around the room on the floor with pillows but we are constantly tripping over them! We are asking for Laptop tables so we can easily store our supplies in our room, and work around the room comfortably. We also need dry erase boards because ours are worn out!

As with most 4th graders, my kiddos love to move!

While some work needs to be done at desks, they have shown higher engagement when allowed to work in creative places around the room. Because of this, I would love to provide them with some comfortable and affordable seating that can be easily stored when not in use. I see these as being very practical and feel that they will help students in my classroom for years to come!
