Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. It reduces anxiety and creates a safe environment in which students learn and collaborate with peers. It allows students to find comfortable positions throughout the classroom that help students feel calm, be focused, and productive. Students learn better when they have a chance to work together. Traditional desks in rows isolate students from each other. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing sit at different tables, sitting under tables with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. 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.
The products that I have selected will provide comfortable seating options that will impact students' learning and behavior. It will increase student engagement and create an effective learning environment. The wobble stools are adjustable and will allow students to sit at desk/higher tables but will still allow some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. If they choose to sit at the chairs, the wobble feet stand will help them maintain focus. They can also be used as an alternative chair if needed! The comfy floor seats will allow for additional comfortable floor seating options. They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.
