My Students

The students who will benefit from this project are high achieving and academically gifted students, in a Title I school.

My third, fourth, and fifth graders want to be challenged by rigorous learning experiences.

They are highly motivated to engage in critical thinking and problem solving activities. These students desire opportunities for real world experiences that require collaboration, communication, and creativity. My goal is to provide them with an academically rich environment that continuously challenges them to strive to think outside the box.

My Project

My students are a very diverse group with a wide range of needs. I teach both academically gifted students and a STEM class at a Title I School. We live near the largest military base and therefore serve a large population of military families.

We are in need of innovative seating which offers multiple benefits for students to maximize their learning experience.

Our classroom is in need of active seating options for students with special needs. A flexible seating arrangement would offer all of my students, but especially students that have difficulty focusing and sitting in the hard-fixed plastic chairs an alternative to move and change positions as needed. These chairs will help students to engage in their learning, focus and increase productivity.

Additionally, these chairs will help provide students an opportunity to feel empowered, become more successful, and make smart choices for their behavior.
