My group of first graders are active and excited to be at school to learn. They need new seating options outside of traditional chairs to engage their moving bodies and ensure their success in the classroom. For example, it can be a challenge for them to become creative writers when their bodies are sprawled across their desks from non-engaged cores. In our room currently, every student has access to carpet spots, low tables with cushions, low chairs and pillows to support their need for choice and movement. Our classroom barrier to supporting these growing learners is a lack of options for active seating while they work at their desks. Some students need small intervention tools like the wobble cushions, whereas others need more active options like the wobble stools. We have had success in the past with implementing these tools by borrowing supplies from other teachers and would like to add options to our classroom on a permanent basis for my students.
