Flexible seating allows students to make a choice about where and how they sit to learn. When empowered by choice students are more likely to be involved in their own learning. Currently, my students are allowed to choose where to sit at different times throughout the day. The options are the floor with or without a pillow, a small couch, different tables, and their desks. I feel they are more willing to be engaged and work harder when they are comfortable. With the new seating options, my goal for each student is to be more engaged and focused on their own learning and less distracting to their peers. I have chosen floor seats to make the floor more comfortable for those students who prefer the floor or like to curl their legs up to lean into my teaching. The yoga balls and wobble chairs are beneficial because children need to move. Movement can help their brains become more focused and alert! All of these seating options can be moved and used all around the classroom whether it be the floor, tables, or their desks.
