Goal
My goal is to create a classroom of choice and encouragement by providing my students with flexible seating options. This will not only allow my more fidgety students the opportunity to get their "wiggles" out while working, but it will allow all of my students to work in an environment that provides comfort to them. I am also asking for various storage bins to store classroom manipulatives to allow easy access throughout the day.
What will be done with my students
Students will have more opportunity to move freely in the classroom. They will be taught how to properly use the various seating options and use them to way that is the most beneficial to their learning. Ultimately, this will keep them more engaged in lessons and activities and further stimulate their learning. Having access to manipulatives and supplies will also give students the opportunity to navigate their own learning at their own pace. They will be able to discover what works and what does not work as they guide themselves through their own work, ultimately taking away more from the activities and having full ownership.
Benefits to my students
Students will gain a sense of ownership of their classroom as they have the ability to make more choices and learn how to share and take care of supplies. It will also allow them to be more comfortable as we move about our daily lessons.
