My Project

My classroom is filled with 28 high-energy students who love to learn. Most of my students stand up or kneel in their seats because they can't sit still for long periods of time. With these flexible seating options, my students will be able to focus more easily on tasks. They'll be able to use their energy in a positive way. With always feeling the need to move the students have difficulty focusing on the task in front of them.

With these flexible seating options, they'll be able to concentrate more easily and will get more out of what they're learning about.

Even though I use many strategies to keep my students engaged, I believe that having more flexible seating options will further increase their attention and increase their academic achievement.

Students will have the option to sit on a standard chair on a wiggle stool, a cushion, or a scoop chair.
