Flexible Seating for Success

Help me give my students the wobble stools that will allow them to move their bodies while working, and the chair bands will allow them to move their feet to help stay focused.

My Project

Help me give my students the flexible seating that they need.

I have been a teacher for 10 years and I am seeing an increased need for students to move.

I do provide motor breaks for my students daily, but I am finding that it is not enough. Traditional chairs are not allowing my children to focus. I would like to provide them with seating options that can help them be successful in the classroom.

In my learning community students should all feel successful and have their needs met, no matter what those are.

I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to consider my project.
