Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work/reading times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting on the floor using another chair, sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. I have also selected 2 iPads for my ESL/ students with special needs classroom, to be used for research while they work on their projects or independent work. My students are from low income families who do not get to use modern technology to learn, let alone to play. I would like to create where students can rotate and use an exciting math app on the iPad to practice and improve their skills. The students can also use different reading apps to enhance their reading skills.
