My students range from 5-7 years of age and are full of energy. Sitting in a chair all day is not ideal for their ever growing minds. With flexible seating they will be able to learn and stay focused due to a more comfortable learning environment. Lets face it students at this age need to wiggle and wobble every now and again throughout the day! I'm requesting Wobble and Balance Ball chairs, inflatable Empire Chairs, and Bouncy Bands for Desks and Chairs. Allowing my students to have flexible seating during instruction will make them forget about that hard uncomfortable desk chair everyone has, and they will definitely be more focused on what we're learning! Flexible seating will help students be more successful because it will keep them focused on learning rather than their uncomfortable chair.
