Help me give my students the ability for flexible seating which is conducive to open collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. This simply cannot be done when kids are sitting in rows of desks all day.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My students struggle with engagement and flexible seating. I am requesting stools which will allow us to work together in a more comfortable setting. Also offering the added benefit of providing sensory input, fidget release, and adaptive stability
Everything I do in my classroom is based on research and best practices for kids.
I’ve found that some of the immediate benefits of flexible seating include burning more calories, using up excess energy, improving metabolism, increased motivation and engagement, creating a better oxygen flow to the brain, and improving core strength and overall posture.
More than half of students from low‑income households
