Children need to move. Flexible seating allows them to wobble, rock, bounce, lean or stand, which increases oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow and core strength. In turn, this burns more calories and increases metabolism. It also helps keep young minds more alert and focused. Flexible seating encourages students to find their best spot to stay calm, focused and productive. My classroom environment plays a key role in the learning that takes place there. My students learn best when they are comfortable and feel safe. Giving students a place to go work where they are comfortable is essential in their learning!
