My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy- they complete work there, and they read independently. Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them.
During independent work and reading times my students choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clipboard. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating. They almost always make good choices about where they sit, are more engaged, and get more work completed than when they are just sitting at their desk. However, they are currently having to share one beanbag chair. With this project I will be able to supply them with two additional beanbag chairs, two saucer chairs and a rug all for the reading area of the classroom.
