Have you ever tried to sit at a table where you struggled to find adequate space for your legs? Have you ever been in a chair that was much too small? Have you ever had difficulty sitting still? Imagine trying to learn in such an environment. Research has shown that an uncomfortable student is one who struggles to learn. Some students need to move, wiggle, or stretch in order to find their “perfect spot to learn”. Traditional seating (desks, tables) often limits a student’s ability to perform at a level at which he/she is capable. Flexible seating options will allow students in my classroom the opportunity to find a spot that provides them with a comfortable learning experience and will enhance their learning potential. I am requesting wobble cushions, bean bags, and comfortable floor seats for students who choose to use a space beyond the traditional seating areas within my classroom. Students will be able to use these items throughout the school day.
