Providing a space for my students to call their own is important, especially for those who live in studio apartments or multi-family housing. Giving my students choice within the classroom has empowered them to speak more freely and share openly. They voiced that they would appreciate padded seats, movement options, and floor seating. Even though this isn't enough seating for everyone, I'm sewing a padded bench cushion for them, and this will give us an excellent start towards flexible seating. The padded swivel chairs with wheels should increase collaboration and mobility within the room. I want to create a learning community for my students, not just a classroom.
