My students need to have more access to space and to working with groups. By adding tables and chairs to my classroom, I will be able to give this flexible seating freedom to them. There is a great deal of research that states that allowing flexible and group seating for students helps improve their academic and their social skills. I have seen this change first hand with other teachers in my school who use flexible seating. The students are more engaged and they have seen a rise in academic scores. I mostly want this because I believe it is the best way to foster communication with my students and help them grow into the best person they can be. Allowing my students to sit in a more comfortable group environment is just one way I can help alleviate some stress and anxiety they might have in the classroom
