My Project

We have a classroom library and we want it to be the "it" place in the room. My students love to be read to but aren't as excited about exploring books on their own. I think by adding some fun seating features, we can make the space more appealing.

Flexible seating gives a child the power to learn in a position that is comfortable to them and since my students love nature, these tree themed pieces will be perfect to inspire them within a forest of imagination.

Flexible seating that is fun and eye catching will help make our library space more inviting and spark curiosity and imagination in the minds of my students.

Grades PreK-2
  • Union Primary School
  • Big Stone Gap, VA
    • More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 20 students.
