Learn And Wobble At The Same Time!
Funded Jan 13, 2018My students absolutely thrived with their wobble chairs. I initially began by rotating through groups of 5 every day and letting each student try out the chairs once a week. After a few weeks, I then pulled the chairs to the back of the room and left them there.
As students entered the classroom and they were able to choose the wobble stools if that was the most comfortable seating for them. There were times when more than 5 students wanted a stool, but we compromised by trading halfway through class, or allowing the student to sit in another area of the classroom. Typically 3-5 students in class wanted one of the stools. The students that gravitated to the stools were often students who wiggle often. All year I watched as students entered my room and chose which type of seating they preferred. They were comfortable and able to wiggle if need be, increasing their focus on the content of the lesson.”
