The use of flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent reading and work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. 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. As students are building their reading stamina and developing their love for reading, it makes them feel as though they are in in their favorite place engrossed in the book they love!
