Middle schoolers' physical needs are often overlooked as society often worries over elementary-aged childrens' physical activity time. PE classes are large and can't accommodate all students every semester. Some children go through middle school without taking any physical education classes due to schedule constraints. In addition, students are now asked to sit in academic courses for 75 minutes four times a day to ensure all necessary standards are taught.

These balance balls will help increase focus and decrease fatigue to ensure student learning is maximized and students are engaged in high-quality learning.
