Many of my students fidget in their seats, rock on their chairs, and struggle with staying on task during lessons. Actually, one of my fears is that my students who rock on their chairs, will fall off and hit their head. That's why this project would help. I would like to have several standing desks in the classroom. Mobile standing desks offer the most flexibility to meet demands of instruction, accommodate different teaching styles, and allow for my students to feel successful learners. These desks would be used on a rotating basis so all students could experience the benefits of this type of learning. A flexible classroom environment allows adaptation as students are better engaged while providing opportunities to arrange the room so that the physical space never gets in the way of learning the material. Student needs are changing over time, making standing desks a way for learners to be actively engaged in their learning in a safe way. It has been proven that student attention and focus improves with this type of flexible seating. It is my hope to be able to provide this type of flexible seating for my students to enjoy.
