Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make choices that work best for them. During independent work, students can choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clipboards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. I currently do not have a carpet area where students can work. 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. Having a carpet will allow students to make good choices about where they sit. They in turn are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at the instructional group tables.
