Sitting at a desk for hours at a time is not beneficial. Today's students need flexibility. If students are comfortable, then they are focused and retain more of what is being taught. Instead of worrying about moving or that their chair is not comfortable, the flexibility with seating will be essential. Movement is key in keeping students focused. My students will use the Wobble Chairs and Yoga Balls for small group instruction at the kidney table or at their own desks so they can be comfortable while working. They will use the Surfing portable desks, so they can sit anywhere in the classroom and have a sturdy writing area. Creating an inviting area for the students to learn reduces learning stress and anxiety.
