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

More Options for Flexible Seating!

Help me give my students more options for flexible seating around the classroom. Movement while learning is very important for the child's brain!

My Project

Children should not have to sit still to learn or do work. They are able to focus more when their bodies are moving and comfortable. These items will give my first grade students more of an option of where to sit while working and learning. I want them to have as many options as possible until they're able to find the best one for them. No two children are exactly alike. Kids should be excited to learn and picking their learning/work spot is a great way to help them learn what their own body needs to be successful.
