I have many students in my classroom that cannot sit in a typical chair for a period of time. It is impossible for them to sit still even for 2 minutes at a time, and it is affecting their ability to access curriculum that is being taught. By providing them these tools to promote the movement they crave, it will help foster a love for learning. This is why having wobble stools, fidget bands, balance disks, and even fidget toys are necessary in my classroom. My students do better anytime I incorporate more movement into the lessons and I truly believe this will help. Thank you for your help and donations to promoting success.
