After much research and the opinions of my students, I have begun the process of implementing flexible seating in the classroom. For the project I am asking for exercise balls and wobbly seats for students to sit on during instruction. We currently have 3 exercise balls in the classroom in which students rotate to sit on. However, by increasing the flexible seating options, more students can be reached each day. Research indicates utilizing flexible seating in the classroom, improves students motivation and engagement, helps burn excess energy, and improves their overall core and posture. While my personal goal as a teacher is to improve academic performance, I understand in order to do so I must consider the whole child. Flexible seating allows students to learn in a way that is conducive to their unique needs. In addition to research, I surveyed students to determine how they feel about flexible seating. The results were overwhelming positive! Thank you for learning more about this project and the positive impact it will have on my class this year and for years to come!
