High-Interest and engaging materials are things my students have not been able to experience. Flexible seating is something they have never had the chance to practice. High-interest materials and flexible seating allow students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. Currently, my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting on our classroom carpet with clipboards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice and thoroughly engaged in learning. Additionally, engaging books that meet the standards critical for students' comprehension and understanding. The products I have selected will meet all of those needs and meet my students where they are! I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work, confidence, and demeanor. I so badly want to meet my students where they are but have not been able to do that yet. But with your help I know I will be able to!
