Flexible seating allows students to have choices on where and how they learn. This upcoming school year, I would like to give my students the opportunity to explore a variety of different seating options that will allow them to collaborate, focus, and be engaged while learning. Student-centered classrooms are proven to be more successful. During the past few years, my students have had choice on where they complete independent reading as well as literacy workshop stations, but not where they sit all day. I have seen how the choice of seating during those times has positively affected my students and their motivation and enthusiasm to learn. Wobble stools will allow students to move as they work. The floor seats will give students the feeling of a traditional chair, but with the extra comfort of being lower to the ground. Wobble cushions can be used in chairs and on the floor for extra comfort, movement, and sensory input. Flexible seating meets the needs of all of the learners that walk into my classroom each day. It is my job to not only teach them what they need to be successful in the future, but to help them feel safe, loved, and valued.
