I am requesting desks that assist with flexible seating in my classroom, and that will also help students focus in class. My students are encouraged to be independent, life long learners. They need support, student-centered activities, and flexibility to be motivated to learn. They need their own space to organize their materials and supplies, so they can focus on their learning. They will use these desks to work on organizational goals. My students continually work on communication and collaboration with cooperative learning. Flexible seating arrangements will allow me to promote these important life skills. Students will be able to work collaboratively with their peers to create projects and solve problems. Having vortex-styled student desks will allow my amazing students to have these opportunities to foster their learning!
