My students will benefit from these Stability balls because research has proven that alternative seating results in higher test scores. Allowing my students to sit on these balls, rather than chairs, will increase attention span, decrease fidgeting, and improve posture. Students should not be expected to sit in a chair for 8 hours a day without being bored or easily distracted. Allowing students to sit on these balls will result in them burning energy and increasing standardized scores at the same time. I highly encourage you to explore the research on this topic as my students academic abilities will flourish all by changing their seats.
