The power of flexible seating is strong within middle school! After learning at home, many of my students grew accustomed to the comfort of their homes. These students loved being able to relax on the couch with their Chromebooks while participating in class in a comfortable environment. Flexible seating encourages blood flow, collaboration, elements of choice, physical movement, and sensory input. When school started back this year and students were back in school full time sitting in an uncomfortable chair for seven straight hours became a great discomfort. This discomfort lead to daily fidgeting, behavioral outbursts, wandering the room, and plain ol' whining about being uncomfortable. The funding of this project will allow my students the freedom and comfort they need to adjust back to full time school. The items in my list will be used to ensure comfort, movement, sensory input, and easy collaboration for All of my students. One of the biggest ways this will change my classroom is by encouraging my students to be comfortable and focus in our learning space- after all an uncomfortable student is hardly paying attention to our class novel. I also believe that the incorporation of flexible seating will encourage my student to make their physical health a priority. Many of the items on my list allow students to rock, bounce, wobble, and lean whenever they would like. This freedom of movement will encourage oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow, and core strength. I believe that the funding of this project will help keep the wonderful student I teach, alert and ready to focus as soon as they sit down!
