Flexible Seating Helps Grow Our Brains

Help me give my students the ability to use the type of seating that will help them learn best!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Rynecki's classroom raised $620

My Project

More and more research is coming out about how flexible seating helps students do their best learning. When being given the option in their seat, students are then able to focus their brains on what they are being tasked to do in the classroom.

Helping students have the autonomy in seat selection is the first step in setting them up for success in the classroom.

I am trying to continue to provide a variety of seating options with new wobble cushions, exercise balls, soft floor cushions, and floor stadium seats. These will help my students have the chance to find a seat that works best for them in their learning.
