Wiggle Worms Need to Wobble

The Description

With these funds I will provide my students with the MUCH needed opportunity to move!  It is scientifically proven that physical activity is directly associated with a greater ability to learn.  I strongly believe that children are expected to sit still for way too long!!  Children are NOT made to sit still (and most adults aren't that good at it either!).  I feel that my students will be better learners, will be better able to make better behavior choices, and will be healthier and happier if we can find a way to incorporate movement as much as possible.

When our goal is reached, I will be able to purchase the Kore WOBBLE Chair for each of my 25 students.  Check them out here:  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQCHCE6?psc=1

These chairs are $49.95 each.  

My students not only deserve this opportunity but they NEED it!  All children deserve to have every opportunity possible to be his or her best.  I'm hoping that we can be blessed with the chance to show others what a difference adding just a little wiggle and wobble to our day can make.

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal I will try to purchase the Air Stability Wobble Cushion, http://www.amazon.com/Stability-Cushion-Diameter-Balance-Included/dp/B00M4ZNVMS/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1424403559&sr=8-7&keywords=stability+disc, which could help with the need to move.
