Our fourth grade classroom would like more seating options. We currently have normal chairs and some exercise balls. Research has shown that flexible seating helps young students concentrate on their work better. They are 9 and 10 years old and they want to wiggle around while they work. By sitting in a hard chair they are unable to accomplish this, so they get up, wonder around the room and get distracted from the task at hand. With these Wobble Seats they are able to wiggle and wobble about in their seat which reduces that urge to get up and wonder around, therefore able to concentrate and complete their work.
