The materials I'm requesting for my classroom will have an immediate impact on my students. The stability balls will replace current fixed chair desks. I have been able to find tables in my building to use in place of desks, I just need the balls to complete the flexible seating option. I purchased a few stability balls on my own last year to test how productively students would use them, and had great results.
Students gravitate toward the stability balls and prefer them over traditional desks. By adding more stability balls this year, I will be able to offer the flexible seating option to half of my class. This allows students who want the fixed chair desks to continue using them, while incorporating the flexible option.
