Funded Jan 11, 2018My students are loving having the new flexible seating options in my classroom. Every morning the students are expected to read independently for 20 minutes. During this time, each student gets to pick a comfortable seat to sit in around my classroom. The students love having the opportunity to move, wiggle and bouncy while completing their work each day.
When the packages arrived to our classroom, the students were so excited to see what was inside the boxes. With opening each box, the students just wanted to setup each item. They had to wait until the next day to try out all our new seating options because I needed to bring in a electric pump. When the students arrived to class the next day, all the new seating was setup and ready to use. I heard a lot of happy giggles and squeals coming from all the students.
Each and everyday my students get to share in the excitement of learning new and interesting things. My students now have the opportunity to learn these things, while moving in different ways around my classroom. My hope is to continue using flexible seating in my classroom every year.”
