My students need opportunities to enjoy alternative flexible seating that allows them to move and/or be comfortable while engaged in learning.

My Students
I work at Title I school with high poverty issues. Most of my students come from single parent homes or being raised by extended family members. My school has a 91% free/reduce lunch percentage.
My students are 5-6 years olds with lots of energy, they are in need of some alternative or flexible seating that allows them to move and explore while still being engaged in the learning objectives at hand.
I have a couple of items already but they are very excited at the opportunity to have more. They enjoy sitting in different types of seating, yet they are still engaged and learning with excitement and enthusiasm.
My Project
Students at ages 5-6 are in need of mobility, having flexible seating would allow them the freedom to move and explore while learning the objectives/goals set before them.
My students enjoy the freedom of moving to different areas of our class, if various seating arrangements and items were available they would be able to do this.
I do have a few items already in my classroom, however with the number of students not always do they get the opportunity to set at one of these areas. Having more available would make all my learners more excited, engaged, and Very Happy!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
