Special reading seats will allow my students to be more focused and take charge of their reading journey. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them to love reading. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating during independent reading time. They are more engaged and get more work completed than when they are just sitting in a chair at their desk. I will use the seating not only during independent reading but also during small groups and/or 1:1 support to help keep my young scholars' mind more alert & focused. In addition to seating options, I have selected other learning materials that will support my scholars with flexible learning options. It's important to provide students with educational options that are at their own level, in order to help them grow and be successful! I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
