Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently, students are choosing to work at different tables or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools and balls allow students to sit at tables and have movement, unlike moving in chairs that flip over. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. The chair bands allow for movement while sitting in regular chairs for those students who prefer traditional seating, but move their legs. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
