Children learn best in an environment that they are comfortable in. When we talk about setting high goals for student success, we need to remember that we are setting goals for children, children who need movement and choice to be at their individual best. Flexible seating has proven to be a wonderful option to help students be more comfortable and able to concentrate on learning. No one would want to sit in an uncomfortable desk and chair all day long, however, this is all that is provided in most classrooms. I am asking for various seating options that I can make available to my students. These include yoga balls and Wobble chairs to help "get the wiggles out," and two kinds of floor chairs for students who prefer to sit on the ground and/or have low muscle tone. Materials to allow for more seating options will help increase concentration and, consequently, improve students' overall behavior and learning.
