I am requesting 4 Jellyfish Chairs, and 4 Wobble stools for my students. The Jellyfish Chairs, and wobble stools are going to be utilized as flexible seating options. I happen to have 4 fold-able chairs that the students are allowed to use in our classroom as well, and they seem to really enjoy seating in chairs that are not your typical everyday chair. My goal is to have enough flexible seating options for everyone in our class. Studies have shown that if teachers engage students in a greater variety of postures, including walking, lying down, moving, learning against a wall or desk, perching, or even squatting. It can result in fewer behavior issues, and even improve academic performance in some students. There is also evidence that active learning has significant advantages over sedentary learning, which are: more can be remembered, they can have more fun, the styles can be more age appropriate, and can be more intelligence independent and that reaches more learners. Active learning is not just for physical education teachers – that notion is outdated. Active learning and flexible seating are for educators who understand the science behind the learning; this is why teachers across the United States are switching daily to flexible seating in their classrooms. Teachers and students love it!
