On a daily basis, my students struggle to stay focused on the task at hand. Whether we are learning during whole group instruction or we are working independent, many distractions present themselves to divert us from our goal. For some, sitting at a desk can cause them to lose focus. When students are given an opportunity to sit and work where they want to they will be able to fully focus on their learning. As a result, other students will also be able to focus on the task at hand. Overall, the classroom will become a quiet, calm, and focused classroom where great levels of learning will take place. All students will be provided with the seating options so all will benefit.
