I teach a multi-grade class of fourth and fifth graders.
My classroom is filled with motivated learners who enjoy academic challenges and are always wanting to learn more.
I often teach my students in small groups, which leaves the rest of the class working independently or with a partner. I have created tasks and activities that will test my students' knowledge and understanding and keep them interested and motivated. Our school is in the suburbs of Utah. Our parents are very supportive and expect high quality teaching and learning. Most of the students have access to technology at home and are enthusiastic to use technology in the classroom. The students often are more comfortable than I am and are not intimidated to try new things. I feel it is my responsibility to provide opportunities to use technology in my 21st century classroom.
My Project
The Kore Wobble chairs will help my students to get the wiggles out while still learning. I have a lot of students who like to fidget or move while they work, and regular chairs don't allow them to do that, but wobble chairs do.
According to the company, it can strengthen core muscles and the rocking motion can be calming and organizing for the brain, helping kids pay attention.
Research has also shown that actually allowing students with ADD/ADHD to fidget while they work helps them to learn better.
Some students just have a more difficult time focusing without wiggling.
