Flexible seating is when students choose the type and location of their seat in the learning environment.
In my classroom, I would like my students to have a variety of choices! I encourage students to try various learning positions to fine-tune what works for them. Every student has different learning styles and those also include their seating preferences.
Integrating flexible seating will reflect many positive changes in my classroom. Flexible seating is far more comfortable than the traditional hard metal chairs. It will also assist in helping get my students' "wiggles" out, and assist in focus. My students will also enjoy being able to choose seats that fit their mood: relax and spread out on the wiggle cushions or work at a table using the wobble stools.
The mobility of flexible seating nurtures collaboration, teaches self-regulation, and motivates metacognition.
