My students love to move around the classroom throughout the day and find a learning spot that best suits their needs. Some students find that they can do their best work, or focus better, if they are not sitting at a traditional desk or have a way to move their body while sitting. Multiple seating options will allow my students to have a voice and a choice in their learning. I love watching them choose a place to work that truly helps them focus. The lap desks will allow students who would like to sit on the floor to work, to do so. The Bouncy Bands attach to the bottom of traditional desks so students who wish to stay seated can still have a way to exert excess energy by bouncing their feet on the band. The stability balls will also allow my kiddos to move around while they work, which can help them focus on the task at hand. The sturdy and durable book boxes will be used for years to come! They will help keep my students organized as they move around the room to choose a learning spot. The book boxes will provide a space for them to keep everything together, but also provide a way to take their materials with them from seat to seat throughout the day.
