Flexible Seating Options for Middle School Music

Help me give my students more comfortable and universal seating options with the yoga ball chairs and folding tables. My classroom is collaborative and using flexible seating options allows for easier grouping.

My Project

I am working to create a fun, collaborative environment with my middle school students. They love to be social and I am looking for ways to include that into my classroom. Having some flexible seating options instead of just desks would allow for students to have more comfortable and collaborative seating.

Students learn best when they are comfortable and work better when they can bounce ideas off each other, this project will help provide my students the opportunity to work to the best of their ability.

Traditional desks keep students isolated and also use a lot of floor space. Modern classrooms need flexible seating to allow for more options and opportunities for students. Having better seating available will enable my students to learn better.
