Here is what they had to say when asked: \"They are so comfy and we like that you can tilt the back to different levels. Then we can lay back and read or sit up straight.\" \"I love sitting in the comfy chairs to do my work.\" \"The comfy chairs are more fun than sitting at my desk!\" As their teacher, I find that students are more motivated to read when they can sit comfortably around the room - and, isn't that the goal? \r\n Students use the write and wipe boards to work on correct letter formation and spelling. Students have also enjoyed the Match and sort Language Quickies as we introduce different concepts in class. It has been a fun way to reinforce things like synonyms, nouns and contractions (without having to prep the materials first myself!)\r\n Thank you so much for funding my project and supporting my students!
