Small Group Alternative Seating

Help me give my students stacking stools for small groups so that we can seamlessly shift between whole group and small group instruction!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hamrick's classroom raised $440

My Project

In my 8th grade ELA classroom, we use small group instruction daily in order to work on reading and writing skills. In order to do this efficiently, students need seating options at the small group spaces that don't require dragging chairs across the classroom. The stools that I am requesting in this project will enable students to stack chairs at the conclusion of small group and quickly transition to independent work. This will meet a significant need in our classroom space, as there are not sufficient stools available to accommodate small group seating.
