I teach full-day kindergarten in an Oklahoma school that values learning through the multiple intelligences. The students in my classroom come from a variety of social, academic, and economic backgrounds. In spite of our differences, we are building a classroom community that embraces each member as we grow and develop. It is important to me that children leave with a community that values their own growth and learning, while understanding that we are all better when we learn firsthand from others and their experiences as they impact our own.
My Project
Five and six year olds have active bodies! It is often hard to sit still during our learning time. The wobble stools in the classroom would offer flexible seating options that would help children maintain their focus during small group learning time.
"Put on that grin and start right in"...wobble while you work.
These stools will be used at our table for our small group lessons. The lessons will include literacy and math. The stools will help the focus of learning be on the content and not the bodies of the learners. Five and six year olds have active bodies! It is often hard to sit still during our learning time. The wobble stools in the classroom would offer flexible seating options that would help children maintain their focus during small group learning time. The movement of the spine and spinal fluid during the learning time activates the brain and makes it more susceptible to learning new material as well as helping to develop the muscles in the core of the body.
