Flexible seating gives students the opportunity to pick the environment best suited for them. It encourages choice, community, comfortability, collaboration, and movement; all things that are shown to greatly impact learning. Currently, my students have the choice to work in a variety of locations in my classroom (i.e. low lighting library, high standing writing table, the carpet) but the seating options are only stools and chairs, both of which are not so comfortable. Making sure my students are comfortable when they are reading, writing, and doing math is essential. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice of where to work in our classroom. I'd like to extend that option to seating preferences as well.
