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. These options allow my students to pick their learning style that best fits their needs. Adding more flexible seating options, such as the wobble chairs & balance ball chairs, to my classroom would benefit all my students and student choice! It keeps their body and minds engaged and active to increase learning. They will have the opportunity to choose a seat for the day, center time, and independent work.
I want to add more multisensory and stem related items into my classroom centers.
These items are tactile and kinesthetic and would help students with their reading, writing, math, and problem solving skills. The sand and water table, along with the sand and water beads, will be used for Stem, science, writing, and active play. The sand boards will be used during centers to give a more multisensory experience when writing sight words and phonics words. The stem straws will be added to our stem station to encourage exploration and critical thinking skills. The unicorns will be used during our math time to add more fun manipulatives when adding and subtracting.
