  • Help The Wiggle Worms Part 2: Flexible Seating Options

    Funded Jul 28, 2019

    We did it! My project has been fully funded and my students will have flexible seating options this year. Thank you so much for donating! My students and I appreciate you! The balance balls will be used at a special VIP station that students will rotate through and the wobble cushions will be matched with clipboards so students can have the option to work wherever they are comfortable in the room. This will make a huge difference in engagement in my room.”

  • Help the Wiggle Worms!

    Funded Nov 10, 2018

    Thank you so much for helping me begin my rooms transition to flexible seating. We were able to get 5 wiggle stools for our room. Some students use them everyday, other students take turns. So far it has been a great experience. The students were so excited when the stools first came in, couldn't wait to help me get them out of the boxes. We use the stools daily to help students wiggle while they work. It has been a great motivator for my easily distracted students. They know they the stools are a priviledge and they only get to use them if they are working hard. I'd like to get more of the chairs and possibly different types of seating for the room. This will give students more options so they feel comfortable in the classroom. Students learn better when they are in a position they can focus in. Thank you again for the support and your donations. I am excited to expand the options for seating in my room!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Woods

I have dedicated, hard working students--students that are just as kind as they are bright. However there are days that a select few cannot sit still long enough to complete a task. I have seen these wiggle stools in other classrooms work for students with similar needs. They are able to sit on this stools wobble around, all the while completing their work and engaging with their table mates. Currently, when having these days, these particular students miss out on the learning that occurs when their table mates discuss problems. They want to walk around or work on the floor. I genuinely believe the simple act of replacing their traditional school chair with one that provides movement will allow these students an outlet for their wiggles. Therefore, they can wiggle while they work. Help my wiggle worms!
