Description This autoethnography project was conducted to determine how flexible seating options can affect student movement, socialization, and collaboration. Students were given multiple seating options throughout 18 months and allowed to explore where and how they work best in a classroom. The qualitative data collected through a teacher journal with photographs suggests that students respond positively to alternative learning and space options within a flexible seating classroom. Flexible seating may stimulate academic and social development among students in a classroom setting. Also, increased student movement may increase student focus within the school setting. This autoethnography intends to highlight the benefits and struggles of creating a flexible seating classroom for elementary learners.
