I am requesting soft seats and wobble chairs for a safe space to learn and grow. Giving students a choice of where to learn is an essential component in motivating them. They make good choices about where they sit, but are struggling on how to stay a safe distance from peers. Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them while keeping socially distance and safe. The seating products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options around our room and visual spacing for safety. The wobble stools are another choice for students to use and will help some of the wiggly students in a safe way.
