Kindergartners are not built to sit still while they learn and work. Kindergartners are active by nature and need to find outlets for their energy that will not be disruptive to their learning or the learning of their peers. Flexible seating within the classroom offers many benefits to students, especially those just beginning their educational journey. Research shows that flexible seating aides in student attention span, increases student engagement, promotes a sense of community/collaboration which improves students' social skills, benefits students with ADHD and autism (along with several other special needs), encourages students to become independent learners, and make students more physically fit! It is no surprise that with all of these benefits, studies have shown that flexible seating also motivates students to want to attend school. I can only imagine what all of these benefits would do with students who are also striving to become bilingual! Our school engages our students in a rigorous program and curriculum where students are expected to stay on par in both English and Spanish. I want my students to have the best environment possible in order for them to be successful and I also want school to be fun and engaging for them. Flexible seating such as mobile student desks, wobble chairs, stools, and stability balls will allow me to provide my students with an inviting, engaging, and developmentally appropriate classroom and I hope will make the beginning of their educational journey one full of positivity, kindness, and growth.
