Then the students have both voice and choice in their projects. Flexible Seating will help facilitate Project Base Learning. These creative project require collaboration.

My Project

Flexible seating will allow our children to have opportunities to make choices in the education, as they choice where and with whom they seat. This may sound trivial but it is the beginning of work in groups and being a cooperative learner. As we try to prepare our students for the future, we realize that their success is dependent on how well they are able to work to together collaboratively. No longer do we as educator believe that we should force children to sit in assigned desk and do the worksheets we give them. We want student to be able to make their own good choices in their eduction.
