Goal

The goal of this project is to allow the students of my classroom to have flexible seating. Flexible seating allows students to empower their own learning through the choice of where and how they learn best!

What will be done with my students

With this grant, I will purchase various forms of flexible seating for my students to choose from. Each form of seating purchased serves a specific purpose. There are large lounge chairs for those seeking a more traditional chair but with the comfort of the lounge chair. There are fidget bands for those who prefer the desk and chair set up, surf chairs for those who prefer to work on the floor, etc.

Benefits to my students

With this grant, I will purchase various forms of flexible seating for my students to choose from. My students are a very dynamic bunch and all learn in very different ways. With their various learning needs, often times they feel restricted in a traditional desk and chair style environment. With these items, they would be able to choose various locations around the room and various levels of comfort to learn in. This is also an opportunity for my students to experience a new way of learning that they may not have access to.

Describe the Students

My students come from a low socioeconomic class and are a wide range of learners. They are the only class of student within the Cultural Arts program at Midtown Academy so I have very high performing students as well as below grade level learners.
