My Project

Our classroom is in need of new seating! Flexible seating will give my students a choice of the most comfortable fit for them. Our new seating will help some students be more productive and stay focused.

Flexible seating will maximize their learning!

The use of the new supplies is much needed as well, as we have many broken crayons and our marker supply is dwindling. Book bags for the back of the students chairs will make it easier to stay organized and our classroom books will be in good condition!
