Mrs. Dooley from Dacula GA is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Let’s Get Comfy with the Curriculum!

My students need 3 bean bags and 3 floor seats as options in the classroom to help them find the best spot to stay calm, focused and productive throughout the school day.

My Students

My classroom is made up of 26 sweet second graders who are excited about learning.

My students are extremely hard working and set out to accomplish personal goals each day.

I teach a resource/ inclusion classroom with means I have students with varying strengths and abilities. My classroom is a safe environment where the students come in ready to explore, learn, and grow both socially and academically.

My students come in each day eager to learn and achieve their goals.

My Project

As a teacher, I am always looking for new ways to differentiate the learning in my classroom. After 9 years of teaching, I know that every student learns differently, so why should I expect every student to reach their full potential while sitting in the same type of seating.

Flexible seating will allow my students to work collaboratively, communicate, and engage with peers.

Students will have more control over their learning because they will choose where they sit daily. I want the classroom to be seen as "ours" and not "mine". A lot has changed in education, so why not change the seating.

The new furniture will provide the students with a different option besides a hard chair. Many students have attention problems, being able to move and change seating can eliminate the behavior issues that may arise. The three big bean bag seats and three comfy floor seats I am requesting will allow them to become more comfortable and find a responsible working space.
