Flexible seating gives students a choice in their learning which is very important to the culture of a classroom. They are able to choose the type of work space that works best for them just as adults do, in the comfort of their own home. With this kind of seating, students are able to figure out how the learn best and it increases the opportunity for students to work collaboratively or independently. Educational consultant, Kayla Delzer wrote about the benefits of flexible seating and how it benefits students by burning calories, improving metabolism, and increasing motivation. I want my students to have opportunities to move, sit, and stand to maximize their learning capabilities; students learn best when they are able to choose how they learn. In order to make this happen in my classroom, my students are in need of Stand-Up desks and stools, stability balls, Active Chairs, among other seating.
