My Project

I love that each of my students comes with many differences. 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 under tables with clipboards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. 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.

These flexible seats will allow them to have a choice about how they are going to sit and complete their task.

The students will also have the ability to move around a little as they work on their schoolwork. They will be able to focus better on Math and Science.
