My Project
Creating a flexible, student-centered classroom environment is key to fostering engagement and comfort, especially for young learners. A floor table and four floor chairs from Lakeshore would provide my students with an inviting space to collaborate, focus, and learn in a way that supports their physical and emotional needs.
Many of my students thrive when given seating choices that allow them to move, stretch, and settle in comfortably.
This setup will give them a break from traditional desks and promote focus, independence, and ownership over their learning space while enhancing flexible seating for our classroom!
