Neat Seats = Happy Class

My students need a better variety of flexible seating options for Kindergarten. I am switching grade levels this year so my previous seating options will not be appropriate for smaller kids.

My Students

If I could describe my classroom in five words, they would be: authentic, rigorous, supportive, engaging, and community. Students in my class have ownership of their own learning and a lot of what goes on happens organically. Because of the passion I have for my subject area and my strong desire to share it with the kids, my class is definitely engaging. Hearing any student say, “wow, class is over already?” is the best compliment I could get, right next to, “I wish I could stay in your class all day.” Every student in my classroom has a unique voice and everyone in the room must respect it. Creating community is essential to taking risks and deeper learning. I care about my kids and they know it. Taking the time to know my students well, not just as learners, but also as people has helped to create a real sense of belonging in our shared space. No matter the obstacles they face outside the class, they strive to be the best they can be every single day.

My Project

I have been implementing flexible seating in my class for 2 years now, but in older grade levels. Flexible seating provides students with the opportunity for students to choose where they will sit and work best on variety of different chairs, cushions and seats. Studies have shown that students typically focus more, stay on task, do better on assessments and are less likely to get in trouble when students are allowed to choose their own style and seating location. The seats I chose for this project will allow students to sit on the floor more comfortably and/or bounce out their energy while learning.
