My Project

In our fifth grade classroom, we often gather and learn in multiple different areas around our classroom. We have vinyl flooring throughout the room, so sitting on the floor for periods of time can be uncomfortable.

Please help us with flexible seating options so that we can learn in comfort anywhere in our classroom!

The students will be able to sit comfortably in a group on the floor for instruction and group activities and be able to move the flexible seating throughout the classroom for learning, reading, and classroom celebrations!
