Flexible Seating While We Work

Help me give my students wiggle cushions, wobble chairs, and comfy floor seats.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chu's classroom raised $783

My Project

As students return back to school from distance learning, it has been a difficult journey to return back to learning in the classroom. Flexible seating allows the students to have that special seat or cushion to be comfortable while they are working. Currently, students have only a few cushions in a small area. Most of the time, students are sitting in their chairs with limited mobility. It is very hard for the students to work without movement. Having that choice of seating to work would help them to feel more at ease while completing their independent assignments.

The products I have chosen - wiggle cushions, wobble chairs, and comfy floor seats will help to provide the students the ability to work with some movement.

Sitting on a wobble chairs will allow students be comfortable while working. The wiggle cushions will provide comfort as they sit in their chair. The comfy floor seats will allow students the option to sit on the floor as alternative to sitting in a chair. Being comfortable while working will help my students be more independent, focused, and at ease in our classroom.
