I have started to implement flexible seating in the classroom and my students absolutely love having a choice of where to work on their assignments. This year I am hoping to add more flexible seating options - one of them being stand-up desks. Instead of always hearing the words, "Sit down at your desk" in school, how would you have liked to hear the words, "Choose where you'll be most effective today"? That is exactly the kind of classroom that I am striving to create. This stand up desk is equipped with a book bin for storing supplies and a swing bar at the bottom for foot movement. Students who learn best through kinaesthetic learning and need to be moving in order to absorb what is being taught, will be able to have access to and utilize this desk on a daily basis. This stand up desk will allow students to be more mobile, to be able to fidget, to to be able to complete assignments in the way that works for them!
