Many flexible seating options stimulate students' sense of touch. This type of stimulation can help children focus and process information. Sensory input is especially helpful for students with ADHD, and ADD. Students need to be able to move around during the school day. When using flexible seating, the students are allowed to rock, lean, stand, etc. which in turn keeps them more alert because it increases oxygen to the brain. As a special education teacher, I have observed the positive benefits of flexible seating. I would like to give these students the opportunity for a change in seating to further stimulate movement inside the learning environment.
