Our students do not learn in traditional classroom environments and as an alternative school placement, we need to offer a variety alternative learning experiences. Flexible seating using Gaiam Adjustable Custom-Fit Balance Ball Chairs allows students to wobble, rock, bounce, lean or stand, which increases oxygen flow to the brain, blood flow and core strength. In turn, this burns more calories and increases metabolism. It also helps keep minds more alert and focused, minimizing disruptive behaviors. Lighting can enhance physical and mental states. It is a highly effective sense that could produce a dramatic effect with a slight change. Educational Insights Patterned Fluorescent Light Filters create a calm atmosphere conducive to learning. The Krylon Chalkboard Paint helps to differentiate traditional paper and pencil learning.
