My Project

I would like to have some bean bag chairs for my classroom.

Most days, my students are working on their Chromebooks.

They are sitting in folding chairs at regular tables. I feel bean bags would make this more enjoyable and help make them feel safe and comfortable.

I have tried to make my students comfortable every day by getting to know my students (about them and what they are into), and bean bag chairs would help with this process. I have observed classrooms with similar items, and they definitely seem to help their classroom environments.

I would greatly appreciate any help with these.
