Giving students choice of seating allows them to be comfortable. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that provides them with the best learning environment. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting around the room with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. These items I am asking for will help make that possible. We are in need of bean bag chairs, bean bag refills, and stability baIls. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed then when they are just sitting at their desk.
