Winning Wobble

Help me give my students tools to focus. I have borrowed these stools from another teacher and the wobbling helps students focus while they work.

My Students

Students love coming to their school. So much so that they have the highest attendance rate in the district. They model exemplary behavior by being respectful, responsible and kind. Students, and their families, show their kindness every year at Thanksgiving by donating and carrying large amounts of food to the local food pantry.

Students worked super hard last year to get better at their math skills and succeeded.

This year and next the focus will be on improving their literacy skills.

My Project

Students with difficulty focusing need movement that keeps their hands free and minds working.

Stools provide movement for students while allowing them to maintain focus on instruction.

Wiggle stools do not use student hands or remove visual attention away from the teacher and instructional materials. Also, the stools do not distract peer focus. Students who have difficulty focusing are those who do not get the instruction they need. Wiggle stools ultimately help students get the instruction they need.

Stools provide the movement students need while keeping their hands and eyes available for instruction.
