Increased Focus & Attention with Wobble Stools

Help me give my students wobble stools to increase their focus and attention. These stools allow movement while seated and they are helpful for my wiggly students.

My Project

Did you sit in a hard chair in 3rd grade?

My project provides wobble stools to allow my students some movement while sitting.

Benefits of wobble stools include: increased attention and focus, better productivity, and opportunities to self-regulate emotions. By allowing movement, these stools help students release energy. They will be able to self-regulate and focus their attention for longer periods of time. These stools would be an asset for my students with disabilities because they have difficulty sitting still for long periods of time. I'm excited to offer my students chairs that fit their individual learning style!
