Flexible seating allows students to take responsibility for their learning. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students can choose to work at a table, on the carpet, on our stage, on our one donut ball chair, or our one wobble stool. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive when they are given a choice of where to work. The products that I have selected will help my students by adding 6 additional wobble stools (this is our classes favorite flexible seating option) These are extremely beneficial for students that just need to get the wiggles out. They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. I have seen how seating choice can positively affect my students energy levels and willingness to work, and I hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
