My Project

Flexible learning opportunities in the classroom allow students to take charge of their own learning and work in an environment that works best for them. During read-to-self and work time, my students currently sit around the room at their desks or on the floor. When students are comfortable, they are better engaged and more motivated to learn.

The items that I have selected will not only allow students to find comfort while reading or working but also to work in an environment that is most beneficial to them.
