Core Strengthening Flexible Seating

My students need another option of flexible seating with a Kore wobble chair that will keep them engaged throughout the day.

My Students

My very active and smart kindergarten class is learning Spanish in the Dual Immersion program. In the time that they've been in class, their Spanish vocabulary has grown. They enter our room with a smile and "Buenos días Señora Perez."

Most of my students are coming from English-only households that appreciate and encourage their child learning a second language.

I want to keep that enthusiasm up as the year ends and keep them improving their Spanish vocabulary through summer and throughout the years to come.

My Project

My students have been enjoying flexible seating this year and I have seen how they have improved in their concentration and improvements in learning Spanish in my dual-immersion class. Their Spanish has improved drastically from day one to now, and I cannot wait to see them improve even more.

We currently have lowered seats, standing tables and pillows.

I want to expand the options, to engage them even more and have them thrive as scholars. They really like standing up to write but saw the core-strengthening seats as another option to keep their wiggles down and focus on their work.
