My goal is to create an environment in our classroom that provides motivation and higher engagement for my students. The items that I am requesting allow for more physical movement throughout the day and improve core strength and overall posture. The Kore Wobble Chairs and Can Do Exercise balls are perfect for my students. Physical activity is linked to higher academic performance and improved behavior. In addition, allowing students choice and movement in their seating will also greatly improve behavior and academic performance.
Flexible seating is much like the business world- It will create a more comfortable environment that helps students be their best learning selves. Comfort will also be found in the form of beanbag chairs, large pillows, and cushion disks. Students are not meant to sit for many hours in the same place and today's classroom chairs do not offer enough flexibility to optimize learning. My students are constantly in motion and I need to meet them at this level and provide alternative seating.
