With your help I will be able to cross off one of the biggest things I have been trying to provide since day 1 of my teaching career. Alternative seating is a major key towards investing in what students need currently with the fast paced environment they have been growing up in. Technology surrounds them and it is at their fingertips constantly so being able to stay up with them and provide them the ability to move while they work, is something that I believe is a step in the right direction for their success. During our Physical Science until we get to complete several experiments. In these experiments students are often up and around the room surveying different stations and taking notes. This is teaching them to be able to make observations and read graphs/charts and tables. With movable seating and lap desks it will be much easier for my students to complete lab reports and for me to set up experiment stations. As a science team one of our standard goals is for the students to be able to correctly write up a lab report.
