Children will be able to choose their seats in our classroom and get ready to learn! Research shows that, " If used properly, flexible classrooms produce better academic outcomes among primary school children than more traditional, static classroom designs." The seats I chose are also made from easy to clean materials so that I can wipe away germs and keep the kids healthy and happy. For a month students' movements and activities have been limited due to the global pandemic. They have been learning virtually at home on a screen. I am concerned about their health. "Flexible seating allows them to wobble, rock, bounce, lean or stand, which increases oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow and core strength. In turn, this burns more calories and increases metabolism. It also helps keep young minds more alert and focused." I am hoping that by having flexible, fun seating it will make having to stay in one area more comfortable for the children.
