As a teacher, I know my students lack interest if they stay in their desk for the entire class time. Having the flexible seating, the WOBBLE chairs and the cushions, they will be able to choose a quiet and comfortable area in the classroom where they can concentrate as they do their work. For example, they can work in the technology station, and sit on the WOBBLE chairs and focus on what they are suppose to do. If they desire to sit on the cushions and read a passage or practice their fluency it will be a pleasant activity that they can enjoy doing. An uncomfortable student will eventually become a distracted and unproductive student. Having the possibility to have comfortable seating will impact positively their productivity in the classroom, and as a result they will be efficient students in the classroom.
