*FlexibleSeating*

Dear Families,

This is just a quick letter to let you know that your

student(s) will be participating in a flexible seating
arrangement in this years English class. This means that
when students are working they will have the freedom to
find comfortable spaces around the room to work. They
might be kneeling, standing, sitting, working on carpet
squares, leaning on a pillow with a clipboard, sitting at
a desk with an exercise ball, or working on a variety of
chair options. There are many possibilities of what this
can look like in a classroom. Research shows that students
are able to focus and do their best work when they are
comfortable. Classrooms across the nation are changing the
way student workspaces look, and with these options, it is
for the better!

You will also see a student contract coming home for both
you and your student to sign. This is just a reminder
that even though I believe these seating options help
everyone learn better, it is still a privilege to sit
where you want and it is a privilege that can be lost.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions!

I hope you are ready for an awesome year!

Miss Kellicut
