Stools to Help Small Groups Learn Big!

Help me give my students stools to use during small group math instruction.

My Project

My students are curious, hardworking, and eager to learn. In our inner-city school, many benefit from small group instruction to get the individualized attention they deserve. Whether we’re working on reading skills, tackling tricky math problems, or building confidence, small group time is where so much of the magic happens.

I am requesting stools to use during small group instruction.

Right now, we’re using mismatched chairs that take up too much space and make it hard for students to gather around our table comfortably. Stools are the perfect solution—they’re compact, easy to move, and just the right height for our small group table.

A well-organized small group area sends a powerful message: this is your space to grow. By replacing bulky chairs with sturdy stools, we’ll maximize space and minimize distractions. Students will be able to come to the table quickly, sit at the right height, and dive right into learning.
