My Project

Our students love to read throughout the day. Reading occurs when students complete an assignment ahead of the allotted time. Having a seat sack will allow them to choose books from the library, store them, and have the book to finish reading later. A seat sack will also help keep them organized without having a large number of items in their desks.

Having stools in the classroom will help with classroom management.

Students will not have to move their chairs from center to center. This will save time for learning and keep students safe.
