Flexible seating is continuing to become more and more popular for many reasons. One of those reasons being that flexible seating helps children stay engaged and focused on their work/task. Flexible seating will provide my students with choices during activities such as daily 5, independent reading, and writing time. During these times, students will be able to decide/choose where they’d like to sit to help encourage their eagerness to work and learn. The bean bags will be used near a reading area for kiddos to use to be comfortable while independently reading or reading with a partner. The wobble chairs will be at a small group reading table to be used during reading group times as well as at desks/other areas around the room when they are not being used during reading groups. Flexible seating will be a big hit in my co-teach classroom this year!
