The students were thrilled when they first saw the new flexible seating options. Their faces lit up with curiosity and joy as they quickly chose a seat and began experimenting with how they could move and stay comfortable while learning. These resources have created a more inclusive and engaging environment for all learners, especially those who benefit from gentle movement during lessons.\r\n\r\nWe've already incorporated the new seating into our daily routines. During whole-group, small-group, and independent work time, students now rotate between the wobble chairs, stools, and yoga balls. They are learning how to choose the seating that helps them focus best and use it respectfully. I've seen more on-task behavior, improved posture, and greater participation. Students are not just learning academics, but also learning how to self-regulate and make choices that support their success.
