Allowing choice for students is essential to growing problem solving skills and developing responsible students. Allowing students to choose their work space empowers them. A student is much more likely to engage in their work with enjoyment if they can choose their work space as opposed to being sent to their desk as their only option. I have floor tables, standing tables, big fuzzy round chairs, scoop chairs, yoga balls and lap desks. My students always have a better time and do a better job when they have some say in how they get to complete their work. Thank you for helping me create an even better learning environment for my students.
