Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. We are an extended learning time school and, therefore, movement, comfort, and independence in where they learn best is imperative. Many times during independent work times or group work time, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. As they move around the room, they are using clipboards, standing tables, and rugs to make themselves comfortable. Having these additional options will only make them even more engaged and able to learn. Many of my students have a difficulty sitting for extended amounts of time, and so these seating options will be invaluable to their engagement and learning. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The beanbags and floor chairs will be great not only as comfortable reading chairs, but will also be used for partner and group work stations. The desk and chair bands will allow my students who just need to get the wiggles out the option of doing so while I am teaching and will be much less disruptive to student learning. Since all of these options are are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.
