Researchers Fernandes, Huang, and Rinaldo (2011) have found that the overall comfort level of a classroom environment plays a factor in student achievement and success. The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything in our classroom door! Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice. Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. Currently, we have a traditional desk format; however, we have seen the benefits of flexible seating and would love to implement some choices in our classroom. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The rectangular and round table would give my students "on the floor" space to use a wobble cushion. These cushions will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. The floor work space is a wonderful space for independent practice. Every single piece of flexible seating would be an amazing addition to our classroom. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more! Fernandes, A.C., Huang, J., Rinaldo, V. (2011).
