My Project

Our students need flexible seating for our library. After I read them a story, they choose a book and then sit down to read.

They enjoy reading while sitting in the library.

These flexible seats will help them feel comfortable in the library. It will allow our students to use the empty spaces in our library more efficiently. They will be able to read and work on classwork on these flexible seats. These seats will provide support and comfort for our students. Right now we only have a carpet and a few chairs.
