As a teacher of students with special needs, I have enjoyed seeking the benefits of flexible seating and I feel that my decision to encompass flexible seating in my classroom will have long term positive effects on my students. Some of the positive effects include comfort, health, and community. Students have the chance to move around and find a place to enjoy. When students are uncomfortable and made to sit in one traditional spot, this makes way for distractions and focus on subject matter becomes less desirable. Flexible seating such as active learning stools, allows for students to have better health. Oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow, and core strength are improved. Students need this for clearer thinking and focus. Active learning stools are a sure way to improve any classroom.
