When I approached my students they said they wanted alternative seating as a reward for working hard. I've noticed that some of them seem to focus better when they can fidget so chairs with wheels would allow them to move around (within reason, of course). Also, some are better able to concentrate when they can be a relaxed position thus the mats. Both of these options would have to be earned by having their work up-to-date and showing me that they can use the materials in a responsible manner and as a tool to enhance their learning.
