With flexible seating, students are able to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent reading and work times, our young scholars are able to choose a location in the classroom that works best for them. Many of my students would like to work in a variety of locations in our room including different tables, sitting with a clipboard, or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. When students have control of where they would like to sit to meet their needs they are more engaged and learning. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are engaged longer, and complete more work than when they are just sitting at their desks.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less distracting to their peers when they are given a choice of where to work.
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 wobble cushions allow students to sit at desks or tables while still permitting some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. The comfy floor seats allow for additional comfortable floor seating options. They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. The clipboards give the students more options and a firm writing surface for our scholars to complete their work.
I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us to continue to grow and learn this year!
