Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My class within a class is a room full of a wide range of abilities and talents. The bouncy chairs provide a safe seating option that won’t roll away but will also allow students the freedom of movement to calm, soothe, or even have the students excited to start their day. The easy to move bouncy balls will also allow the co-teachers to arrange the room into groups for student collaboration or to allow students to sit on their own if they need personal space. We love flexible seating options.
