Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During our morning circle sharing we always stay on the carpet and I observed this works for them. Carpet or rug makes my students comfortable place to expand their learning space onto the floor. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. 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 than when they are just sitting at their desk.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less destructive when they are seating on the carpet.
This will be extremely beneficial for my students.
I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
I describe the materials and directly points out how these materials would have a positive impact on my students by further motivating them. Readers get a visual of how my students would engage with the materials.
