Flexible Seating

Help me give my students flexible seating options for work time in our classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Young's classroom raised $492

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I would like to give my class more seating options for them to work. All learners are unique and need different work environments. Not all students are successful at their desk, but instead need movement to focus. With the flexible seating options like stools, balance balls and lap desks, students will get the choice of which item supports their learning.

I envision the new seating around our small tables for group work.

These are areas where learning and collaboration take place. Thank you for your consideration in supporting this project!
