My Project

I teach in an elementary classroom in Philadelphia where students come from a massive variety of backgrounds. I have previously funded projects and written grants to provide my students with flexible seating including stools, floor seats, yoga balls, and wobble cushions. My students have previously been limited in where they can use these seating options as they still needed access to a hard and flat work surface.

Clipboards allow students to have a workspace anywhere in the classroom, not just when they are at their tables.

These clipboards can be used with any of the flexible seating options in my classroom providing more spaces for my students to work in, and helping meet their bodily needs for having a space where they are comfortable to work.
