Overworked Chairs Need Retirement Plan

Help me give my students the opportunity to take charge of their own learning with flexible seating.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Allen's classroom raised $870

My Project

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their own learning. In my experience, students that are given choices become more engaged and are less distruptive of their peers. In my class students are given multiple opportunities to work in a variety of locations.

The products that I have chosen will help increase all levels of engagement by providing addtional seating options to make learning more effective.

The wobble stools and flex table will be extremely beneficial for students that perform better with movement. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more.
