    I've spent the past two years as an itinerant teacher in elementary schools, and from what I experience flexible seating is amazing for kids! I hope that if more and more of us talk about it, other teachers will join the train!

    I completely agree. Last grade, in 9th, we suggested flexible seating often, but most said no bc they said we need a slightly uncomfortable chair to stay awake. But it’s hard to focus when all you can think about is getting comfy

    I am so happy to finally find somebody setting up a classroom for older students. I am teaching 8th grade, middle school and soooo struggeling with nice ideas. For primary school it´s all so colorful and playful. Great. But my students would freak out with the rainbow-design. I just thought about doing an own video to show you, what I might take out of your ideas. :-D
