Make Learning Comfortable Again!

Help me give my students more flexible seating options to make learning comfortable!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Adamson's classroom raised $807

My Project

As a first-year teacher, I am always looking for ways to make my classroom as comfortable as possible for my students. One thing I have found to be certain is that sitting at a desk for hours at a time is NOT comfortable or fun for any of my students. How cool would it be if students could choose where and how they want to sit?

Lap Desks will give my students the opportunity to complete their work anywhere around the classroom!

Research shows that flexible seating increases student engagement and performance. These lap desks are easy to move and provide enough space for students to keep all their materials so that they have what they need all on their laps! With the addition of flexible seating options, my students will be able to select the most comfortable and beneficial seating for them!

Your help is extremely appreciated and will benefit students for years to come! Let's make learning comfortable again!
