My third grade students are currently using small plastic chairs when we break into small groups. Have you ever had to sit in a hard chair for hours, and continually try and pay attention and learn? Students squirm and wiggle in their seats, sitting for long times on hard seats or the hard floor. This can be very difficult for students. These Trideer ball chairs will allow them to sit more comfortable while allowing them to get their wiggles out. Flexible seating will help stimulate student learning by allowing the students to use up extra energy, build metabolism, all while increasing their motivation to be engaged. These will be used for multiple years, to allow for comfort for students and as well as throwing a little fun into the students’ day.
