Flexible options can accommodate those who prefer to work alone while still fostering collaboration. Providing alternative seating choices such as standing desks, floor seating, or designated quiet areas for independent work allows kids to have autonomy over their learning environment. This approach offers the benefits of increased student choice and collaboration while also catering to individual preferences for independent work. Striking a balance between assigned seats and flexible seating can create a sense of routine, minimize distractions, and facilitate classroom management while promoting student engagement and comfort.
