My Project

As I return to teaching next year, I recognize the importance of creating a dynamic learning environment for my third-grade students. To enhance small group instruction, I am seeking to introduce wobble stools for our classroom's small group table.

Traditional seating arrangements can hinder student engagement and focus.

Wobble stools offer a solution by allowing students to move and sway while seated, promoting better concentration and accommodating different learning styles.

Incorporating movement into the classroom improves focus and enhances cognitive function and academic performance. Additionally, wobble stools empower students by allowing them to choose their seating option, fostering a sense of autonomy and responsibility.

By introducing wobble stools to our small group table, I aim to create a more inclusive and dynamic learning environment where every student feels supported and empowered to succeed. This initiative aligns with my commitment to providing an environment that fosters the holistic development of each student.
