Help me give my students flexible seating options for when we return to the classroom! All children learn in different ways and for some, having seating options can increase focus and productivity.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nugent's classroom raised $489

My Students
I currently teach second grade in Jamaica, Queens. We are a very diverse community of learners, both culturally and academically. My students love the opportunity to be creative. They also shine academically when given more choices on HOW they learn and HOW they show what they know. Our classroom is our second home and we would love to fill it with tools and supplies to maximize our learning and, most importantly, our joy for learning!
My Project
We have a very fast-paced, rigorous academic days. Students work hard and move around the room often, but our options for seating are very limited.
Giving students flexible seating options can increase focus and productivity.
This project will help my diverse learners to focus and even enjoy our time together more!
Flexible seating gives students choice, which ultimately leads to excitement. It also provides students with the option to be comfortable anywhere in the classroom. With 32 children in one room, space is limited. Having the option to set up a group comfortably anywhere in the room would be a game-changer for all!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
