I am wanting to get five tables for my classroom. These tables would not only benefit my current students but also the students that have yet to enter my classroom. These tables would allow me to implement flexible seating into my classroom. Flexible seating or alternative seating has been proven to improve students academic growth and understanding of the content being learned. Each table in the classroom would have different seating at it. Students would have the ability to move around the room to the table that meets their specific learning needs. For example, one table will be a standing table, students that enjoy standing while they work can choose to work there. Other tables will feature floor pillows, yoga balls, and barstools. I am extremely excited for this project and the positive impacts it will bring to my classroom. Thank you!
