Funded Nov 19, 2019My students were so excited to see our new Kids Kore Wobble chairs, they saw them right away when they walked into our classroom. They began to tell one another " we have new chairs, look at our chairs!" I even overheard them telling each other I can't wait to have reading so I can sit on the chairs.
When my first guided reading group was called over to sit on the stools they beamed as they walked over and sat down. They whispered to each other " this is gonna be so much fun!" As the lesson began I saw how focused they were as I explained the phonics game we would be playing in order to sound out the syllables in a word.
I really noticed how focused and willing to push themselves my students were. Each new group of students were able to move and rock their bodies, yet it did not stop them from keeping focused and engaged in the activities. Our guided reading area is now a place all my students want to be called to because it allows them to learn and move.”
With gratitude,
