Support Ms. Siebert's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
Flexible seating allows students the opportunity to really take charge of their learning. Because every child is different, their learning styles are different. During independent work, they are able to choose a location in our classroom that works best for them. During group work or work stations, my students choose to work in different areas of our room such as lying on the floor with a clipboard or under a table against the wall. Creating a safe environment is essential to childrens’ growth and learning. I have noticed an amazing difference in my students’ learning when they are given a choice in their seating. They are more engaged, eager to learn and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
