Movement is especially important to my first graders. Some of them may have difficulty sitting still and focusing all of their energy on the lessons being shared, but with flexible seating they have the opportunity to move and still be engaged with learning - they don't need to choose between the two; they are less distracted. With the seating options I have chosen, specifically the yoga balls, it will allow my students the opportunity to wobble, rock, bounce and use that excess energy they seem to have in abundance and allow them to continue to be actively engaged with learning. The stools I selected can be utilized for small group activities and give the students another variation in seating options. Flexible seating just gives my first graders a chance to be active all day and I know it will allow their for their learning to be more focused; and, as an added bonus, it can help to develop their core strength and improve their posture!
