Help me give my students flexiable seating for a comfortable and fun school year.

My Project

Students are required to sit at traditional desks and tables six feet away from their peers in uncomfortably padded school seats per Covid-19 regulations. As a result of the absence of peer connection, some students are feeling more worried and occasionally needing something to keep them focused. As a second-year teacher, I want to make my classroom cozier and more welcoming by letting my students use a variety of flexible seating options. The Big Joe Bean Bag Chairs will be perfect for our classroom library, while the wobble stools will provide students extra time to move around.
