Flexible Seating Ohh La La!

Help me give my students flexible seating options because my students need spaces in the room to get their energy out to help focus.

My Project

My 3rd and 4th grade students have so much energy that they need to get out in order to focus on their learning.

With this project, I will be able to give my students multiple options to sit in the classroom, giving them autonomy to choose their seating which will help them with their learning.

This is my first year in the upper grades and I am learning throughout the year the things that they need in order to help learn.

Many of my students have very little choice in their lives so I would like to give them the option of choice in at least their seating. I am very excited about the opportunity to continue my students education through flexible seating.
