My Project
This project entails transitioning a traditional classroom layout with rows of desks to a flexible seating environment with varied options to meet diverse learner needs. Flexible seating has been shown to improve student focus, engagement, and academic achievement. The teacher aims to provide an innovative classroom design that empowers students to self-regulate and make choices about where and how they learn best based on the task and their needs in the moment.
Flexible seating expands the learning environment while upholding an orderly, respectful classroom community.
Meeting diverse learning needs boosts self-efficacy, enjoyment, and academic outcomes. This project aims to balance stimulation and calming spaces to cultivate student-centered classrooms where all can thrive.
