Flexible seating has allowed my students to choose the seating that best allows them to take charge of their learning. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works best for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting on the rug with clip boards, bean bags, and scoop rocker chairs, and stools. I have discovered that an essential component in motivating students to learn is having the option to sit where they are conformable. 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.
My students have been more engaged and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice of where to work.
The flexible seating products that I have made will give my students more options to make better learning choices. It will also give more students the option to chose flexible seating.
The products that I have chosen will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools will allow students to sit at tables but will still allow some movement. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to move. The FlexSpace Big Teardrop Beanbag Chair will allow for additional comfortable floor seating options. Also the FlexSpace Comfy Floor Seat will encourage more students to sit and read and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. My students love to seat around the room and read their favorite "Pete the Cat" book.
