I am requesting help with providing my students with two yoga ball chairs and one standing desk. With flexible seating options, students are put in a position to take charge of their learning environment. Students will now have the option to select yoga chairs or standing desk. Desks will no longer be the only option for students! Each of my students will have an equal oppertunity to use the new seating options throughout the school day. Research confirms that the brain learns best and retains more information when the body is involved in physical activity. My students find it challanging to stay seated at a desk for an extended period of time. With flexible seating, my students will remain focused on learning while being physically active. Flexible seating is an alternative strategy to help students succeed in the classroom.
