Flexible Seating Makes Learning Easier

Help me give my students new seats in class! Everyone loves to move while they work, so help me get flexible seating!

Ms. Thomas Highland Park Elementary School
Amarillo, TX Grades 3-5

My Students

My students are such hard workers. They face every challenge head on and never give up. Even when they get stuck they still try to solve the problem or fix the challenge.

My students have had a rough couple of weeks.

They have never given up and I want to reward them with some flexible seating in my classroom!

My Project

I would love to provide my students with a place to move while they learn. Sitting still can be hard and you lose focus while sitting still. Some kids just need to move. These flexible seating options would be perfect for my kids to learn and move at the same time.

While kids are easily distracted they lose their focus off their work.

I want to be able to provide a way for the students to move and still be learning. If they can move even the smallest amount it changes everything for their learning.
