This "Teacher Wishlist" donation will be used to purchase Teen Kore Adjustable Wobble Chair for TMS's Learning Center.

Unlike regular chairs, the Adjustable Kore Wobble Chair forces your children's bodies to conform to a natural posture. The gently rounded bottom and flat seat allows one's knees, hips, and back to find a comfortable position to rest as the chair wobbles. The wobbling provides an outlet for restlessness and extra energy while doing homework, drawing, eating, and more.

In the early 20th century, progressive educator John Dewey famously unbolted desks from the floor, arguing that the quality of one’s education stems from experience. Today, both educators and researchers alike have taken Dewey’s enlightened thinking one step further by acknowledging movement not only encourages activity and discourages sedentary behavior, but also enhances students’ ability to engage in learning.
