Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 140

In my classroom flexible seating has helped my students build core strength, focus, and keep on task. The physical activity that is associated with a variety of seating arrangements allows students to be more alert and focused. They are able to sit in a comfortable enviornment and work and wiggle in their seat if they please. They have had more on-task behavior and are excited to walk into a colorful classroom with new seating!

Original Grant Overview

Goal

Flexible seating encourages students to find their best spot to stay calm, focused and productive.  

 

What will be done with my students

Students feel empowered by having some degree of choice and control over their environment. Flexible seating allows students to choose where they work and with whom. It also allows them to change their location and positions as needed.  

 

Benefits to my students

Flexible seating gives students the option to control their physical environments in which they work best. In other words, with choices, students gain greater flexibility and control of their surroundings giving them the autonomy and comfort to stay engaged and focused.
