My Students

Help me get flexible seating chairs for my students. We are in a public school in Pennsylvania, and we represent a diverse student population. My students come from a variety of language and cultural backgrounds, and some receive reduced-price or free lunch.

My Project

Children need to move. Flexible seating allows them to wobble, rock, bounce, lean, or stand which increases oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow, and core strength. In turn, this burns more calories and increases metabolism. It also helps keep young minds more alert and focused.

Students feel empowered by having some degree of choice and control over their environment.

Flexible seating allows students to choose where they work and with whom. It also allows them to change their location and positions as needed.

In flexible seating, the classroom is arranged to give a variety of options. Students can choose where they would like to work on their current project or classwork. Students might choose a location based on how they're feeling that day or what project they are working on.
