  • Biking Our Way to the 21st Century!

    Funded Nov 15, 2017

    Thank you so much everyone that donated to make this project funded! You all are truly heroes when it comes to transforming the education experience children get in school. My students are very appreciative and excited about the conclusion of this project. They are very much looking forward to using their new flexible seats to hunker down and work at higher levels throughout their day.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Wilson

  • Sitting Forward Into the Twenty-First Century Learning Environment!

    Funded Oct 2, 2017

    My students love their new flexible seating! They have a rotation schedule based on the day of the week to take turns and get to use any seat they choose. My former disruptive and constantly moving students now sit and bounce in a single spot through the lesson.

    When they first walked in and saw the new seats, they could hardly contain their excitement! They wanted to know right away what they were for and how we would make sure everyone got turns. After just a couple days the class was already trained and ready for their turns with the seats and enjoyed every kind of choice seat we have.

    Our next step with the next project will be to further increase the availability of seat choices. Students will have more options that will keep their energy flowing in a controlled and quiet way. I hope to have a full choice of flexible seating in the future where I can take away almost all our traditional desks!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Wilson

These seats are specifically and purposefully picked to increase the engagement level of all students throughout the day. Students today need to move around and fidget a lot to keep their energy in check and focus on what is going on in the classroom. Wobble , bounce, donut and balance balls allow students do harness their energy while minimally distracting all other students in the class. These seats also boost a student's positive perspective in the classroom to further ensure they are looking forward to learning every day. Engaging with the teacher in the lesson is everything. When a student becomes bored because they have to sit in a seat they aren't comfortable in, they stop listening and participating. When students don't list and participate, learning sharply decreases. With flexible seating, students will have a much easier time staying engaged with the lesson and releasing distracting energy in a way that won't bother other students as they listen.
