The idea is to create a more comfortable environment that helps students be their best learning selves. A few years ago I took a risk and decided to lose all desks in my classroom. I purchased clipboards, pillows, a baby pool, and a few tables for my students to use to do their work. This was a wonderful decision because it allows my students to take responsibility for their own learning. They know how their bodies feel at any given day and time and are able to decide where their best learning will take place. These flexible seats will help students be the best learners they can be.
