Help me give my students flexible seating; We have beautiful window area perfect for the Juexica cushions and the wobble chairs will replace the ones that are literally falling apart in my room now.
My students have a lot of positive energy and they are constantly on the move. Sitting still might not be their strong suet but why should it be? Flexible seating lets my class have more control over their surroundings and lets them literally rock and roll while focusing on the subject at hand.
The opportunity to choose their seating provides my students a sense of ownership in their classroom and in their learning; this ownership leads students to greater academic success.
By having these flexible seating options my students will have the chance to place themselves in the best spot for learning. I have seen my students in the past find true success with the most basic of supports, wobble chairs, soft cushions for sitting comfortable on the floor or in a window help students feel more comfortable in our classroom. When comfortable students can focus on their learning and their classroom success.
