My Project

In our third-grade classroom, we believe that collaboration and active learning are key to success. To help our students thrive during small group activities, we need comfortable and flexible stools for our small group table. These stools will allow our students to work closely with their peers, engage in meaningful discussions, and focus on their tasks. With your support, we can create a flexible learning environment where every third grader has the tools they need to succeed and feel confident in their learning.

Our classroom thrives on collaboration and small group instruction.

To make the most of our small group table, we need sturdy, comfortable stools that allow students to focus, engage, and learn together.
