I have chosen three different seating options; three wobble chairs, four butterfly seats, and four exercise balls. Kids always want what their friend has so it was important that I have multiples of each, as well as different colors. Flexible seating is new to me, but as an adult, I know I haven't been teaching from home, in the same way, I would in a classroom, so how can I expect young children to? I think it is important, when they transition back, that they are provided the same flexible learning options that they have become accustomed to. I will talk to the students about how the seats can be beneficial for them and every morning when they come in, they will be able to choose a seat that they feel is best for them that day! At the end of the day, they will be cleaned and ready for the next morning.
