Get Ready to Move and Learn!
Funded Aug 1, 2018In my classroom, my students are using their flexible seating options when they are working in groups, partners, and independently at a work station, my table, and on the floor around the room. For example, the wobble chairs and padded stools are at my work stations where students can work on projects, center, or a flipped lesson during the day. My padded seats are used when students want to read or work around the room. My regular stools are used at my table when I am delivering a Guided Reading group.
When my students saw the boxes coming into the classroom, they were excited and curious to what I was going to add to the classroom. When students saw these seating options, they were more willing to sit comfortably and work and learn better during class or during work time. In my Thank You letters many of my students explained how the seats are more comfortable than the chairs that are given to the classroom by the school. They love getting to work in different places and having choice throughout the day.
My next step for students on a current classroom project is to provide more options for technology into my classroom. I would love for my students to have more options for flipped lessons and other apps to engage my students and differentiate instruction. One of my future donor choose projects will be to purchase tablets in order to accomplish this dream.”
