Funded Feb 8, 2022My students are so energetic and fun. They love to move around the room and socialize with each other, especially with their new Wobble chairs!
They gathered in different parts of the room to work and would take turns using the wobble chairs. They had a lot of great ideas and discussions, which were easily encouraged by using flexible seating.
Students need opportunities to move around while learning in the classroom. After two years of the pandemic where many students were learning from home on a laptop, returning to the classroom has been a major adjustment for many. Going from working at the kitchen table, couch, or bedroom to a traditional desk and chair has been a challenge for many.
Students are having to learn to be social again and to work together in person.
The wobble chairs helped the students move while at their desks and are easy to move to a group setting. They helped the students sit up and provide balance, as well as a fun way to learn.
The light covers helped create a calm learning environment that promoted discussions and learning. The paintbrush sets were for the days that we painted and listened to music. The students will always remember the wobble chairs and the fun they had with each other.”
With gratitude,
