Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the seat choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location and flexible seating option that works best for them. Currently, my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at a low table with beach chairs, scoop rockers, yoga mats, and pillows. Making sure students are comfortable while they are learning is essential to help motivate them. I have noticed wonderful differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. My students enjoy being able to choose different seating options that work best for them. This allows them to take leadership and responsibility for their learning environment. This also enables them to be able to work well in groups around the room. My students are much more engaged when they are using their flexible seating options. This also allows them to be less disruptive to their peers, as opposed to sitting next to them in a desk. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools are adjustable and will allow students to sit at their desk/higher tables, but will still allow some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. The floor wiggle seats can be used in chairs and also on the ground as an extra choice for students. I have enjoyed watching my students grow as they have been able to use their flexible seating options. Adding more choices for them would be ideal!
