I love having the tennis balls on the bottoms of the chairs because it really reduces the extra sounds and noises in the classroom which help all of us stay focused on the tasks or listening to instruction. \r\n\r\nThe other part of the project was a beautiful pink teacher rocking chair that I use during read aloud time. I also have the students sit there when they get to share author's corner writing that they've worked on. We absolutely love having all the different seating options.
