Every student in my class is very different, but one common thing I have noticed is that this group of students is a little "wigglier" than past years! I am not sure entirely what contributed to this phenomenon; whether it is Covid related or just this groups' uniqueness, but I feel that wiggle seats would greatly benefit these kids. Another added bonus is that they can be used again to reach many other students in my future classes. I know that my students would love to have one of their own because I currently have 4 seats in my classroom that all 31 kids rotate through. They LOVE when it is their turn, even though it only comes around once every 2 weeks!
