This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Flexible seating allows a variety of seating options for my students. Many of my students have disabilities that make it difficult for them to focus on seat work, by allowing them to choose from a variety of seating options, students are able to have control over their learning environment and are more comfortable for learning. I currently have limited options for flexible seating but students generally select an option that is beneficial for them.I have noticed an increase in participation and motivation since introducing the seating I have now, as limited as it is.
Giving students choices helps improve their learning and increase engagement.
My students choose to sit on the floor all over the room and stand or sit at their tables. Many students choose to sit on the floor over sitting at their tables. I believe with more choices students will have a greater chance of finding the best space for them to optimism their learning and have better focus.
