Wobble stools will allow our students to focus during reading small groups . These will also help to keep children focused because are not fidgeting around in a seat that is too big for them or lying around, stretching out on the floor. Many studies have proven that moving while learning does in fact help build focus and stamina especially during reading! After a year of virtual learning many of my first graders have not ever been on a school campus before so “sitting still” isn’t the best mode for them to learn. We would be thrilled to have this addition to our classroom and will be so grateful if you decide to donate!!
