My Project

My students will be able to use these wobble stools and cushions in order to maximize their learning in reading and other subjects. Wobble stools allow my young first graders to move around and fidget in a safe and productive way while they are working on independent work or as a whole group.

First graders love to move!

I love teaching first grade because they are excited to learn no matter what the subject. These flexible seating options with allow students to work in a way that is best for them. Whether they will be used independently, in small groups with me, or in whole group, these stools and cushions will make a large impact to my first grade students.
