I am hoping to purchase 6 wobble stools and 8 wobble cushions for my classroom. These materials will be used by my students on a daily basis. Wobble stools and wobble cushions help even the wiggliest students stay focused. The stools have a rounded bottom that allows the child to move back and forth while working without disturbing their neighbors. The benefits of being able to wiggle and move while working are numerous, especially to students with Attention Deficit Disorder. Attention spans grow longer and concentration improves. Research proves that the relationship between movement and brain activity leads to higher academic results. Everyone needs to move around while they work, especially students. I truly believe wobble stools and wobble cushions are what my students need to be successful. Third grade is a big year for my students. They are faced with standardized testing for the first time--two rounds of it--both the IREAD3 test and the ILEARN test. Our days are packed full of rigorous academics. The more focused my students are, the more they are learning! I look forward to providing these wobble stools and wobble cushions to help my students stay focused. Thank you for your consideration of my first DonorsChoose.org project.
