According to the NEA article “Understanding Universal Design in the Classroom,” the learning space is an important aspect of the whole educational experience: “One cannot have a community of learners without having a positive instructional climate. Instructors help to create this climate by everything that they do, from the way they respond to student questions to the arrangement of the classroom chairs.”
By changing our classroom environment with the use of flexible seating such as stools, bean bag chair, and a ball chair, students will be able to be more comfortable and easily move around to work in pairs or groups. This is especially important in a Special Education classroom because it allows the students to work on their social skills.
