My Project

I would love to provide better seating for my classroom.

Having lighter and shorter chairs will be very beneficial for my pre-k students.

Also, being able to provide some flexibility in our seating would be wonderful.

My goal for this project is to provide comfortable and practical seating. This group of kids I have this year never complained about the chairs but they would be so grateful for new ones.

The bean bags will provide a fun and flexible way to add to our learning. I can’t wait to see smiling faces enjoying them.
