We Use Stability Balls Instead of Traditional Chairs!

In our classroom, stability balls are not toys. They are our everyday chairs. My fabulous fourth graders do very well, but they are kids and want to play.

They have wanted to explore since the first day of school. Finally, in December, they were given the opportunity to try out their balls in the gym.

We spent about 20 minutes rolling, bouncing, balancing, tossing, and doing pretty much everything we can't do in the classroom.

They had a great time!
