My students are very active and giving them choices of where they can complete work will allow them to focus more and increase the productivity for their assignments. Often times, children struggle to sit in traditional chairs, which can often be hard and uncomfortable. A traditional desk makes it difficult for students to keep all of their supplies organized. The flexible seating options that I have chosen are portable and will allow the students to move to appropriate locations within the classroom to complete their work. Often times, choices allow students to take a more active role in their own education.
