Mrs. Cothern from Ocean Springs MS is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Let's Work at the Table

Help me give my students a table with chairs and a bench as a place to complete work independently or in a whole group that has ample amount of storage.

My Project

A new table and chairs would help my students have a new place to work. The hope is that we will love this table so much that we will eventually do away with our old student desks and have new workspaces for the entire class to enjoy.

Tables and chairs would really assist us in working in groups and working as a team.

Currently, we have individual desks and chairs that we frequently need to move around throughout the day. We are looking forward to a new space to learn that offers us a great place to work together.
