Flexible seating will allow my kindergarteners to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During center and small group time they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clip boards, or during our team teaching rotations. 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 desk.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools are adjustable and will allow students to sit at desk/higher tables but will still allow some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. They can also be used as an alternative chair if needed! The Flex-Space Classroom Storage Bench will allow for additional seating in our cozy library. The set of Soft Seats will give my littles the option to sit comfortably while they are engaged in their reading.
I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
