If students have proven anything over the past year and a half of constant flux and change, it's that they are adaptable. Students learned in ways they never had before as our academic front changed from the traditional in-person learning to the hybrid mode that is still in use now. While students were learning virtually from home, they enjoyed the freedom of escaping from a standard desk and chair scenario and experienced a new realm of more comfortable seating. Now that they are back in the classroom, students need that continued option of flexible seating to support and improve their focus. The majority of my students need to be closer to the board for improved visuals and/or prefer to "work around the room" using the few flexible seating options that are available. Flexible seating can help our class maintain social distancing regulations, while also allowing our students the freedom of movement and choice to sit in a way that they will focus and learn best. This not only supports their academic growth, but improves their mental and emotional health as well. I have already seen vast improvements in attentive listening, collaboration, and cooperation when my students are given flexible seating options. As we build up our students' stamina for in-person learning again, we must consider and offer seating choices that will help students be successful. The growing rates of students with ADHD also support the research that sitting at a table or desk for most of their academic day is not what's best for kids. Please help me provide a choice for my hard-working students that allows for each student to find a seating option that works best for them.
