Help me give my students the choice of having flexible seating to help them choose the best seat for learning and gives them the privilege of choose what's best for them.

My Students
I teach 24 energetic and outgoing students. They love to move around the classroom and do their independent work somewhere new everyday.
I have 12 girls and 12 boys and they have loved learning in my classroom.
They enjoy me giving them choices rather than telling them where to sit. Some of them are extra hyper and this is why I feel they would benefit from having flexible seating. Some like to change up where they sit from day to day.
My Project
Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently, my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as at different tables, sitting on the rug with clip boards, or sitting at my teacher desk. 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. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices.
The wobble stools are great for the students who need to get some wiggles out. They can also be used as an alternative chair if needed! The floor seats are great for the students who enjoy being closer to the ground and are lightweight and can be used in many areas of the classroom. The ball chairs work perfectly at their regular tables and helps the students with their posture.
I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
