Research shows that allowing students to sit in comfortable, flexible seating options greatly enhances their focus. With a fulfilled project, my classroom would change immensely. I would be able to offer my students a variety of seating options based on what best meets their needs. Students would be able to use wobble stools, stability cushions, folding chairs, floor cushions, and inflatable seating to allow them to become more comfortable, find a responsible working space and get the most out of our work times and classroom activities. The materials I have chosen for my classroom reflect what is needed to create a positive and successful learning environment. By providing my students with flexible seating options you are directly helping me create a structured classroom! The environment shapes experience and I want students to view reading and writing as a fun, meaningful, and creative process. Having flex space chairs and floor seats in the classroom will provide students with a different option besides sitting in a hard chair.
