My students are all ranges of abilities. Some students are very focused and eager to learn while others need more encouragement and motivation. A lot of our activities are labs, group work, task rotations and some reading and taking notes. Many students have difficulties focusing and staying on task. While we try not to sit for long periods of time, there are times that we need to read and take notes. Our classroom chairs are a hard plastic and very uncomfortable. My Project: I would like to replace 10 hard plastic chairs with Hokki stools. This will allow the student that need more movement and stimulation to move in their seat and swivel to get information from different areas of the room. The stools are ergonomic and help to strengthen core body muscles. This is one of many strategies to help students focus and be successful.
