We Are Flexible For Flexible Seating!

Help me give my students flexible seating for our classroom. Having the ability to choose where you would like to sit really engages students in learning.

My Project

I have 7 special education students who have a lot of energy they need to burn. 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. The flexible seating will help my students focus which will then allow them to learn! Flexible classrooms give students a choice in what kind of learning space works best for them, and help them to work collaboratively, communicate, and engage in critical thinking.
