Having these flexible seating options in my classroom meets my students' need to move and fidget in a way that isn't disruptive to others and allows them to continue their learning. I also believe that the flexible seating will contribute to behavior because students will be less likely to get up and down from their seats if the urge to move is already being met. Many of my students also need the feeling of moving their bodies, hands, and legs to concentrate. Flexible seating will hopefully help in that area as well. Lastly the floor desks will be perfect for those students for whom the chair is all together a distraction.
