Fourth grade has flexible seating. Your child will not have an assigned seat/desk. Instead they are free to choose from bungee chairs, pillows, small tables, large tables, crates, stools, etc. Research indicates that alternative seating:
1. Helps students’ attention spans which results in higher achievement 2. Make students more actively engaged in the classroom 3. Gives them an active outlet without disrupting their learning 4. Motivates students 5. Helps those with ADHD and Autism, along with other special need 6. Helps develop a sense of community and improves social skills 7. Helps students become independent learners This method will allow your child to do their BEST learning. We will guide the students how to choose a spot that is most conducive to their learning style. We are very excited to try this in our classrooms this year. If you have any questions, please contact us. We are looking forward to a great year!
