Tristan Horewood's curator insight, June 1, 2021 6:27 AM

As teacher we often discuss how engaging our units of work are for our students but we forget that our classrooms can be utilized to keep our students engaged.

A classroom is a special place. Every day it comes to life and potentially hundreds of students pass through the door on a weekly basis. But I would like to propose that classrooms are often uninspiring places to be. Messy, unorganised, broken chairs, wires that lead nowhere and piles of paper.

I like how this article is the basics of flexible seating. It is not necessarily having to change the furniture in the room but giving students the freedom to "get comfortable" when working. Students can sit on the floor with their backs against the all, lie under tables, stand up, or build a fort.

Educators report that flexible classroom seating is empowering students to take ownership of their classroom and their learning.
Kel Bray's curator insight, May 21, 2017 1:45 AM
I can see how this would have its advantages. One would be, "if you don't stop talking, you will be move from your buddy'. No doubt something that will come in handy in the classroom. Thanks Catherine.
Kayden Tague's curator insight, June 30, 2017 10:55 PM

Calli shares how flexible seating can improve student engagement. When students have choices with regard to seating, they get to choose what makes them comfortable. The place they choose helps them to focus and work hard on the task at hand. Callie also shares several tips to be successful with flexible seating in the classroom.
