Currently, I teach students in grades K-3 in a public school setting in a rural area . My students have different learning styles when compared to their peers. Disabilities include Specific Learning Deficits, Behavior and or Emotional Disorders, Autism, and students who have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Many students have trouble focusing as well as sitting still. They require frequent breaks and opportunities to move about in the classroom. Students benefit from areas in the class that are quiet, comforting, and serene. They require an accommodating educational curriculum with specific classroom supports.

Alternative seating will allow students to learn in an optimal atmosphere. They will have the flexibility to choose seating areas where they are focused and ready to learn. Bean bag chairs, fidget bands, stools, and slanted work spaces will allow students to work in a classroom where they genuinely feel relaxed and a sense of comfort.

Students with specific learning needs function best when they are allowed movement and flexibility.

Seating and class arrangements that accommodate students provide a work environment that meets the needs of all learners. My students will genuinely benefit from the functionality and support that such an environment will provide.
