My Project

I am currently teaching in a classroom full of students who love to move. Some love to sit at the typical desks; some like to sit on the floor; some like to stand. My classroom is full of creative, unique, ambitious, and talented kiddos.

They would benefit greatly from having access to flexible seating options while they work.

I plan to use the materials requested to help my students focus better in class while providing them choice in their work environment. These flexible seating items, such as the floor desks and wobble chairs are a huge leap towards a classroom that is better suited to a diversity of learners.
