My Project

These waves chairs will provide my students the ability to have choice while coming to small group. It also will allow them to work in small group settings and collaborate with their peers. There is a link between higher academic performance and more on-task behavior with flexible seating for students. Flexible seating is the practice of allowing and providing many seating options for students, which they should be provided with.

Flexible seating allows students to concentrate better and it provides the students with choice.

Flexible seating will allow students to move freely in their seats, helping them to better process the information being presented to them. Flexible seating is also important for small groups to encourage focus and collaboration with their peers
