Flexible seating like lap desks and Bouncy Chair bands would increase student learning because students feel empowered when they have choice and control over their work environment. It allows them to change their positions or location as needed.
Students need to move, and flexible seating allows them to wobble, rock, or lean which increases oxygen to the brain, blood flow, and builds core strength.
It is no surprise that movement is linked to higher academic performance, better health, and improved behavior. I can't wait to for them to have more choice in where they work and for my students who struggle with ADHD to have more movement at their desks.
