I believe that my students would greatly benefit from flexible seating that would allow movement in my classroom.
According to a 2009 study published by the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, students (especially those with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder) tend to move around when they are using working memory to solve problems.
