We currently have a tradition classroom with a desk and standard chair for each student. They are wiggly and fidgety and would benefit greatly from flexible seating. Flexible seating and earmuffs will allow my student to CHOOSE to succeed in the classroom. Each student in the class will be able to make their own decision between silence or background noise, some movement in their chair or an upright standard chair. I will swap our standard chairs for wobble chairs and balls for my students who need an aid in their concentration. Ear muffs will be for students who need silence for concentration.
