I am requesting seating options including the yoga ball, wobble cushions and wobble stools which would allow students to be comfortable while still providing a place to sit. This will just add to their enthusiasm when they come to Alpha! These bright students like to go "all in" -- they are on their knees thinking their hardest independently OR with a partner of group. Some of them even like to stand! Seating options such as these will give my students choices to be themselves! After all learning isn't about how you sit, it's about having fun while learning!
