My second-grade students love working around the classroom! They do their best work when they are not confined to a specific seat and they are able to choose what works best for them to support their learning style. Flexible seating will provide them with the opportunity to wiggle while they work and to stay focused. They take ownership of their learning in knowing what works, what doesn't work and why.
We had one wiggle stool in our classroom last year and they loved it and begged for more! We had to take turns throughout the day to use it. I would love to give them more options for flexible and comfortable seating, so I chose the gaming rocker chairs and lap desks to give students choice for this. The wobble stools, wobble cushions, fidget bands, and balance ball seats will give students who need extra movement throughout the day an opportunity to do so quietly while working. The products I have selected will allow all of my students the opportunity to use flexible seating throughout our classroom.
I strongly feel that this will provide my students with a comfortable learning environment and therefore increase student learning. The ability to move in an environment is proven to enhance learning, concentration, and attentiveness. Thank you so much for making this possible for them!
