Redesigning our learning environment by using flexible seating centers student learning as the main focus in the classroom. Empowering students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them improves engagement and production of meaningful thinking. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: carpet spots, stools, at different tables, sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard.
Providing students with choices that make them feel comfortable in our classroom is an essential component in motivating them. The flexible seating options that I have selected will benefit over 125 students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. Our limited choices have already positively impacted my students collaboration and overall classroom culture. I hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
