Most of my students have no prior school experience so I am their first teacher! It is my job to create a warm, nurturing environment that meets the needs of all my students and to provide rich learning experiences. There are many components to our day but we spend the majority of the time sitting. We're sitting for story-time, small group & large group instruction, and we're even sitting at the table exploring new and old materials. And that's a lot of sitting for a 4-5-year-old. I want to be able to provide my students with flexible seating options so they can pick how they want to sit in order to learn. I believe all children, not just boys and students with special needs, will benefit from flexible seating options. I have made many accommodations for my students with special needs when it came to flexible seating and I have noticed a difference with their learning. I recently attended a professional development course that focused on boys and how they learn, which is not by sitting. Sitting for long periods of time can be very challenging, especially if it's new to you and you're being asked to do it often (throughout the day). Providing my students with flexible seating options will help meet the needs of their growing/developing body and mind while keeping them engage in group activities. Students won't have to sit "criss cross apple sauce" but they will be asked "how would you like to sit and learn for small group?" I am requesting wobble chairs and soft seats.
