My Project

This past school year I was fortunate to be able to provide five wobble seats that were used at my small group table. This was a game changer! My students were engaged and wanted to participate, even though I may have become seasick from time to time as they moved back and forth! Students began asking to be able to swap out their chairs for my wobble seats during independent work.

My goal is to be able to provide each student in my classroom a wobble cushion that can be used in their chair or as a stand alone cushion working away from their desk.

The wobble cushions I have selected will allow my students who need that movement to stay focused and on task as well as provide them the needed stimuli normally associated with "fidgets"

Thank you for your consideration!
