My Project

I love how eager my students are to learn and how much energy and curiosity they bring into the classroom each day. They are creative, hardworking, and full of potential. However, I’ve noticed that many of them struggle with sitting still for long periods, which can impact their ability to focus and stay engaged. By adding standing desks and flexible seating to our classroom, I can offer them new ways to move, choose how they learn best, and stay comfortable. These resources will support their focus, boost motivation, and create a more inclusive learning environment.
