My students were beyond excited and couldn't wait to start using them; there was a literal buzz of energy as they gathered around to see the new additions to our space. This immediate enthusiasm has translated into a daily eagerness to engage with our lessons. We use these seats as a key component of our flexible seating transition, allowing students to move away from traditional desks to find a spot where they feel most focused and comfortable.\r\n\r\nA specific moment that stands out was during our recent \"Literary Circles\" project. I watched a small group of three students grab their floor seats and form a tight, collaborative circle in the corner of the room. Because they were at eye level with one another and physically comfortable, the dynamic of their discussion shifted; they were more attentive to each other's ideas and stayed on task for the entire duration of the block. Whether they are tucked away for independent reading or huddled together for partner brainstorming, these seats have provided a sense of autonomy and comfort that was previously missing from our environment.\r\n\r\nBy offering these options, I have noticed a significant increase in student engagement and a decrease in restless behavior. The seats have turned our classroom into a more inviting and student-centered space where my class feels empowered to take ownership of their learning. These aren't just cushions; they are tools that have helped us build a more focused, collaborative, and joyful community of learners.","fullyFundedDate":1761475946387,"projectUrl":"project/the-right-fit-personalized-learning-thr/9854532/","projectTitle":"The Right Fit: Personalized Learning Through Seating","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4013567_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1476913564715","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4013567"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_85650","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":317,"numTeachers":18,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":86,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"4 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"17.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":79.3,"schoolId":85650,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Noble Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Noble Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/ohio/tiffin-city-school-district/noble-elementary-school/85650"}
