Flexible classrooms are successful because they go hand in hand with a change in pedagogy. Flexible spaces, educators agree, alter the fundamental dynamics of teaching and learning, giving students more control and responsibility, improving academic engagement, and undermining the typical face-forward orientation of the traditional learning environment. With these seating options, flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools allow for movement at their desk space. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. The comfy floor seats and lap chairs will allow for additional comfortable floor seating options. To avoid trouble, the yoga ball bases with come in handy! All options are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. I hope to give my students comfortable seating options to enhance their learning experience this school year!
