Help me give my students flex space wobble cushions to help them maximize their learning by being in a space that is most comfortable to them. This also includes a parachute and more.

My Project
Flexible seating allows students to maximize their learning in a way that gives them their independence to make choices that work best for them. These flexible seating options allow students to do their small group and independent work in a space that is most comfortable to them. Whether it is doing their work in their notebook or on a clipboard, they can choose the option to use the different flexible seating options on the floor, on their desks, or on the flexible seats that will be placed around the classroom, these options allow students to find what is most comfortable for them. I noticed that when my students are given the choice, they are able to maximize their learning and stay on task.
They are more engaged in their learning and love working with their peers.
I also would like to purchase activities that require students to be physically active (parachute, etc.). This would be very impactful because I noticed when students are given the opportunity to have a brain break throughout the day and it involves getting their bodies moving, the students come back more relaxed and focused to learn. This allows students to then maximize their learning after their break and stay focus throughout the day.
Both of these, the flexible seating and physical activities are very impactful and meaningful to these students who have been affected by COVID-19 because the students didn't have the opportunity to have flexible seating or to do physical activities because they had to stay on the computers for majority of the day for distance learning. Providing the students the opportunity to utilize these tools, I believe will leave a positive impact on the students' work and demeanor throughout the school day and their own learning.
