My Students

My students are high school mathematicians grade 9 through 12. My students are becoming independent learners who want to be given choices and take charge of their learning. They have diverse learning needs, diverse learning styles, and do well when given opportunities to show independence.

My students will be noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive to their classmates if they can be given the choice of flexible seating.

One way that I can give choice to students, is to have flexible seating options in the classroom, so that during independent work time they can choose a seating arrangement that works best for them. Currently my students only have one area of flexible seating, so I would like to increase the flexible seating options in my classroom. Allowing students to be comfortable in the classroom is an essential component to increase motivation. I believe I will see differences in my students when they are given more choice in their seating. They will be more engaged, efficiently get more work completed, and be able to work on making good choices.

My Project

The products I have selected will help my students by giving them flexible seating options to make more productive and engaged learners. The chairs will allow students to be more comfortable while working during class time. Anytime we can increase comfort it helps with attention and work completion. The chairs will allow students the choice of sitting some place different rather than their traditional desks.

Students should be given the opportunity to be comfortable while working hard at learning.

I am anticipating that flexible seating options will positively affect my students work, behavior, and engagement while becoming successful mathematical learners.
