K'Motion stools, provide an opportunity for students to stay engaged in small group instruction, while expending their energy in a controlled, structured, non-disruptive manner. In particular, second graders often have difficulty keeping their reading focus as they progress into longer and longer text.
By using these stools during small group instruction, students will have an outlet for their energy, which in turn will allow them to stay more focused and increase their reading stamina. This is an important skill students need to build, as it lays the foundation for them to be life-long learners.
An important additional benefit these stools will provide is an opportunity for those students with "extra energy" to have a structured option to move within the classroom. This is an important option, because it allows those students to "be themselves" without looking for other energy outlets that often causes issues during a lesson or with peers. This will help to maintain and increase a positive classroom culture, because it helps to recognize individual students' needs and personalities.
