Wobble While You Read

My students need to move and work on their core strength with Disc O Sit Juniors!

My Students

Our school is comprised of over 700 Kindergarten to third grade students. That is over 700 5-10 year olds in one building! The students at our school have a wide variety of social, economical, and educational backgrounds.

These students are inquisitive, love to read (and be read to), and love to move!

Movement plays a vital role in listening and learning. So, with the funding, these students will be able to move, listen, and have a more comfortable, more personal space!

My Project

Most young children love (and need to move). Having the Disco Seat Cushion allows students to move, work on their posture, and become better listeners!

Students will be allowed to use the seat cushions during story time and will also be able to move them around the library, to create their own, special, personal learning space.

They could move the cushions to our hard back chairs, or on the floor.

Students will be reading, working on balance, and strengthening their cores with the use of an inflatable seat cushion. The seat cushions do have textured sides, to fit different comfort levels.
