My goal as an educator is to meet the needs of each student, by allowing students to choose different seating options that best fit their learning styles. Once students have their physical needs met, they will be motivated to learn. It is often said that writing is considered a dying art, but with your help, our writing class can thrive. According to a study done at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Washington, kids with and without ADHD that have used optional seating, found it actually helped them to be better behaved and have improved listening skills. The idea is to create a more comfortable environment that helps students be their best learning selves. If we take a look at classrooms over the past 70 years, we are seeing the same type of learning environments, year after year. The world is changing, yet our classrooms are remaining much the same. Help bring change to our writing class!
