These materials will help my students to focus while sitting in chairs. It will also begin my goal to have a flexible seating classroom, where students can learn to make wise choices and find a place in the room that gives them the opportunity to learn, instead of just in a traditional chair and desk.
I believe that students learn when they feel comfortable. Often a traditional desk gets cramped. I hope that with these supplies I can limit the number of desks and chairs to make more room in the classroom for movement and exploration.
When I want to really read a book, I do not sit at the kitchen table, I curl up on the couch. I believe that students will enjoy their school day if they can make the same decisions.
