My Project

I teach 5th-grade math and social studies. Flexible seating will allow my students to move around the room comfortably and allow for them the flexibility to work in groups. The storage unit will be used to store math materials that we use each class period. Right now the materials are stored in different places in the room, this will keep everything we need in one area.

In each math class students work either with a partner or a group of three, having comfortable seats will allow them to sit all over the room.
