These flexible seating options will help our students get their wiggles out while they work. By providing our students with a safe option to move while working students will be more engaged in the lesson. The wobble floor cushions will be used during our morning meeting time and read to self. These are times during the day that the students need an option to get some of their wiggles out but still stay on task- these cushions will do just that! The wobble stools will be used as an option for students to utilize when they feel they need them to focus the best. Having these different options available to students will help them be more in charge of their own success. They will be able to recognize if they need a different flexible option to help them focus! We love to provide options for students to choose what will make them the most successful.
