Flexible seating is making a trend into classrooms today. However, it is not just a fad. It is a way of designing your classroom to promote engaged learners and it is backed my research. Students in my class will have options for seating, such as Wobble Chairs, Wobble Cushions and Balance Ball Seats. A choice of seating will allow for more physical activity for students. Students will use an adjustable rectangular table to allow for a different type of work-space for small group learning. Students in my classroom will have the autonomy to choose an engaging area with various seating that works best for their unique learning style. Instead of just chairs, students will be able to use comfy cushions and wobble chairs to help support their academic achievement. Benefits of flexible seating include burning more calories, improving core strength, and increased motivation and engagement. Physical activity is linked to higher academic performance, better health, and improved behavior. I want to provide students with this opportunity every day. My students deserve a 21st century learning environment. One that is innovative, promotes cooperation, and is exciting! With flexible seating, students will be able to achieve success!
