Since I teach Health and Wellness, I like to make my lessons and my classroom setup as conducive to a healthy lifestyle as possible. There is a lot of moving during my lessons as well as the ability to sit in a comfortable seat which helps them relax and pay closer attention to the topic at hand. Sitting on an uncomfortable seat with your legs under a desk for an entire day can make anybody fidget and lose interest and focus more on their lack of comfort. Students who need to be able to move need these seats even more. My classroom is unlike any I have ever seen in that there are NO desks or tables or regular chairs. I have 20-25 flexible & comfy seats kept along the edges of the room. When the kids are sitting, they can move them around and when we are moving, the seats go back along the edge so that we have an entire classroom space to move safely in. Each student gets called randomly at the beginning of class and picks their seat for the rest of the class period.
