Do you remember spending hours of school sitting in the same, hard, uncomfortable seat? I sure do and now as a teacher I find students learn best and are happiest when given the option to get up, move around, and take their own seat. " Flexible seating encourages students to find their bestspot to stay calm, focused and productive." My hope is to give my students the opportunity to find a spot in my classroom where they can do their best and overcome challenges! Sitting in a chair at a desk isn't always the best way to learn for some of my students; some learn best in a chair that allows them to move easily (for example a rocker) or seated in an area away from distractions. Students will get to choose their seats during various center activities in which they will participate in intervention and enrichment activities daily.
