Most of my students come from a rural "low income" community and all qualify for Special Education assistance through an IEP or Individual Education Plan. Some merely need help in one subject, or maybe two, while others require a full-time staff paraprofessional to help them be successful each day. Despite their challenges, my students are awesome. They are receptive and eager to learn. There are little things that help them succeed each day, and one of those is just being able to move. Our school strives to create the best possible learning environment for our students but like anyone else, we are limited by our budget. We are learning that the traditional expectations of students remaining seated quietly in their desks does not apply to today's students. That is why we are looking for products such as the Wobble Stools to allow them to move around in a way that is not disruptive to the class and is beneficial to the student.
