Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

My Project

Flexible seating allows the students to be more self-aware of the seating types and the environment in which they learn best. Like a comforting chair for the students to know and understand different styles. When their brain is in a fog, the bounce ball chair will come into play to jog those memories being lost, when learning is taking place. A mindset shift is beneficial for both students and teachers.

Flexible seating also, allows students to choose where they work and with whom.

It also allows them to change their location and positions as needed.
