In my 14 years of teaching, I have watched five year olds wiggle and squirm in their seats trying to get more comfortable while doing their work. They never seem to get comfortable enough. These flexible seating options will give some the option to bounce, and others to relax as needed while staying engaged in the lessons.
Let's give my students the option to learn in a comfortable way for them.
I want my classroom to be in a place they want to be, and flexible seating will provide them with more comfortable options.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
