My Project

Our kindergarten class has been working hard to learn in school! Many of our English Language Learners and students with apraxia need love to learn but have difficulty sitting still to get their work done.

We will use these flexible seats every day to work around our classroom.

The seats will help us focus and stay motivated while we learn to read and write!

We will use these seats and cushions to keep our bodies moving without disrupting other students’ learning. Our class will surely love sitting on these different seats while learning in groups, in their seats, on the carpet, and in any place we can choose to work throughout our classroom.
