    My teacher in fourth grade turned her room comfy and had these rolling desks and a lot of these things and we only had like 10 desks and mostly flexible seating and I loved it so much.

    my hands down all time favorite teacher is my english teacher, and she also does flexible seating. we have a mini couch, we have these plastic lawn chair things that are so comfortable, we have mini stools, we have like 4 bean bag chairs, and we have 10 wobble cushions that we put everywhere. i love flexible seating because we do a lot of independent learning and small group stuff and we can be super relaxed and i love it

    I just wrote a grant for that exact flex table and flex chair accents because I saw it on your page! My kiddos love learning outside of their traditional desks and this was the PERFECT thing! Thanks for sharing! Wish me luck (:

    I wish this was an option in elementary school. I think about as 'flex seating' we ever had was the desks were all crazy different heights and the chairs were all different because something about how my school didn't have the same kind of desks. but to have that kind of seating would be amazing! I woulda been one of the wobble kids. LOL

    I'm curious as to how flexible seating would work in the high school level, particularly with the louder classes. I really want to try with my students but I'm nervous because they may get out of control.

    I love flexible seating! Makes me so jealous we don’t have Lakeshore Learning in Canada 🇨🇦. 😭😭😭 I’ve looked into shipping and exchange rates and it’s soooooo expensive. Congrats on being an embassader, you spend so much on your classroom to make it special for your students, I’m glad Lakeshore chose you!

    I was that kid that would always lean my chair back. My teacher gave a stool just like the wobble chair except without the wide bottom so that if I didn’t have two feet on the ground at all times the stool would fall over.

    I guess I'm just different. I would have hated those types of seat options. I worked best with a desk and regular chair. I cringe when I see a classroom with all random, wacky, and no regular chairs and then they have the kids pick their seats every week. I would have stressed out especially since I'm a W and use to being last of the line.

    Hi there, I watch your videos and you are a very inspiring teacher. I really have enjoyed to a lot of your organizational tips as well.
    I really liked your video on flexible seating and the advantages of having it in the classroom. My only concern is that I’m on a very tight budget because I just moved to a new state. We do have a lakeshore learning that I plan to visit. May I ask about how much you spent on the seats needed to do this.
