Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they will be able to choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students only have the option to sit at a regular desk and chair. I look forward to them being about to choose to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting on different types of seats, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board or lap desk. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in students throughout my school when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The tables will provide opportunities for group work as well as an alternate seating choice. The wobble cushions will give my students a seating option that will allow them to move in their own space while working. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. I currently have a few other alternate seats that can be used at the tables, but we need the tables to be able to use the seats!
I know how choice can positively affect a student's work and demeanor and I hope that the additional options will help my students grow and work to their potential!
