Whoever thought that 6 and 7 year olds would sit comfortably in a hard chair were wrong! My class of 27 amazing and very different students already implement flexible seating. We have very few options to choose from though. I would love to give my students more options such as Wobble Cushions to explore and keep them active and motivated in class. If they can learn early on what helps them to be successful then they will have the tools to succeed all throughout school. These seating options will make a difference in the classroom but giving the students even more freedom to choose how and where they can work to learn!
