Due to the curriculum being entirely online, it is essential for students to be in a comfortable seat. Some of my students are much more successful when they have the ability to move a little while they work which makes the wobble chair and wobble cushion a perfect option. Others seem to work better when they are able to sit close to the ground and hold their knees up or cross their legs like pretzels. Which is why I am requesting the comfortable ground chair.
We have such high expectations for our students and I love watching them rise to meet those expectations. I believe it's time to give them flex seating options to make them more comfortable while they are working towards their goals for 6 hours each day. Adults wouldn't be expected to work sitting in such uncomfortable chairs. I really think this will elevate their learning and their motivation to work if they were more comfortable.
