Flexible seating in classrooms is becoming more and more popular. This type of seating gives students choice, movement, and comfort all while building the classroom community. An uncomfortable student is a distracted and unproductive student. For example, picture a student who skipped or didn’t have access to breakfast. As the countdown to lunch approaches, the sound of his or her growling stomach will make it impossibly hard to hear the teacher’s voice. An uncomfortable chair can have the same effect. As one teacher said, “There is no better way to show your support for a student-centered classroom, than creating a classroom from a child’s point of view.”In her opinion, as well as mine, comfortable students are engaged students. Flexible seating encourages students to find their best spot to stay calm, focused and productive.
