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. 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 table.
The flexible seating will allow us to create a cozy atmosphere where children can engage in great discussions to learn from their peers. A major part of Kindergarten is to give students time to learn how to socialize with his/her peers. Flexible seating will give the children a variety of seating options to feel comfortable while learning. The flexible seating will also allow the students to get wiggles out while learning.
