Wiggle While We Learn!

My students need to wiggle. I believe if a child is not comfortable then they will not, can not learn. Wobble stools will allow every child to be successful.

My Students

Kindergarten is a fun, exciting and curious time for students. They are learning so many new things on a daily bases. As new students to our educational careers, we are exploring and creating. We are succeeding and also failing. We are curious.

We are so curious that we want and need to know more about everyting around us.

Technology can take us far but only when one can type. We would like an opportunity to learn and ask questions in a different way.

My Project

Every student learns in different ways. Some students need to wiggle to be successful. A wobble stool will promote their ability to tip without getting hurt by a typical school chair. If they are not comfortable while in class their minds are not open for the learning and growing we do in kindergarten. Wobble stools will allow all of my little buttons to be successful in their learning environment. Many fellow teachers and articles are promoting flexible seating within the classroom. My kindergartens have a choice of a crate seat, ball chair, bucket or regular school chair. These wobble stools will be a great addition to our classroom.
