I teach second grade at a magnet school in Alabama. Basically, sitting on an exercise ball provides a certain kind of brain stimulation for the person sitting on it, enabling the person to have the brain power to remain on-task. Kids who need to move constantly can still do it, without disrupting the class. Not to mention the balls provide terrific core-muscle strengthening benefits.
