Help me give my students flexible seating options that allow students to move into small groups or work independently. They will be able to wiggle and move a bit and still stay focused and on task.

My Project
**My students thrive in environments that allow for physical movement and social interaction.** Traditional desks often limit their ability to move freely, which can lead to discomfort and decreased engagement. Many of my students learn best when they are able to collaborate, communicate, and physically shift their focus by turning to face their peers.
The proposed desk and chair combinations offer a flexible, student-centered solution.
These units will not only support the natural need for movement but also foster collaborative learning by making it easier for students to engage with one another. This flexibility promotes a more dynamic, inclusive, and supportive classroom environment where all students can participate more fully and feel comfortable doing so.
