I would like to add more flexible seating options to my classroom. I currently have some stability balls that students use and love. The addition of the Comfy Floor Seats and Wobble Chairs would increase the options my students have for flexible seating. These additional seating options will be used during centers, self-selected reading, and any other time that a student needs a little movement while sitting. The floor seating options will allow them back support while working on the carpet. I've researched and learned that some of the immediate benefits of flexible seating include that students burn more calories, use up excess energy, and demonstrate increased engagement. In addition, the use of Wobble Chairs creates better oxygen flow to the brain and improves core strength and overall posture. Since physical activity is linked to higher academic performance, better health, and improved behavior, I feel like this is a great investment in my student's health.
