As a first year teacher, I am trying to support the variety of learners in my classroom. To accommodate a very active student, we have a ball seat for him to bounce on while he completes his school work. The ball seat has helped this student tremendously with focus and participation. Other students have found interest and comfort in the ball seat when the student in my class is not using it. To support all of my learners, I would love to have the opportunity for each of my students to be able to experience flexible seating. Flexible seating will help my students practice making responsible decision. Students can pick seating that works best for them individually to increase their focus and participation. Students will be able to stay active while they learn by bouncing, fidgeting, or wiggling while also staying on task.
