Student Directed Learning is Key for 21st Century Classrooms
Jackie Bartell, MS Ed, Internationally recognized autism & special education trainer & consultant shares how 21st century classrooms are stepping away from being teacher centered and moving toward student-directed learning where students are actively engaged.
In this article, Jackie helps to answer the question: How do we facilitate movement in a classroom to support self regulation without taking away from the teaching and student-directed learning? |
"Every kindergarten class should have Vidgets"
"Kindergarten Teacher shares that one of her students has taken OFF in her ability to attend to written tasks. After a week of using the Vidget the student was writing using 1-2 sentences and is now sitting down for extended periods of time to write 5-6 sentence paragraphs! The student often sits to write of her own accord now. I'm so grateful to have the Vidgets to give her the sensory input she needs so that the output matches her ability level. Vidgets are an amazing seating option for early education students! I think every Kindergarten class should have them! |
Research validates a 90% reduction in disruptive behavior after just 3 weeks of using Vidgets!

Vidget benefits over other active & flexible seating
Before & After: easy to clean & disinfect
Vidgets wipe clean with the same cleaning solution used in your classroom or home today. Even permanent marker comes off with a little scrubbing or use Magic Eraser for stubborn stains.
One piece construction / molded plastic allows for easy disinfecting without having to worry about screws or large parting lines that allow bacteria growth.
5 Sizes: Toddler - Teen/Adult (10", 12", 14", 16", 18")
The patented Vidget 3-in-1 Active & Flexible Seating System™ can transform from an active seat into a stool or flat desk surface by simply turning it over. It provides many opportunities for collaboration by allowing children & teachers to create flexible learning spaces based on individual and group needs. Designing your own space supports the benefit of adaptable environments.

BEST FLEXIBLE SEATING OPTION AROUND!
The most popular flexible seating option in my classroom! Bought the 14 inch and is the perfect size for 5-8 year olds! It is so versatile and the students have no trouble turning it or managing how they want to use it. Very sturdy, very appealing, and worth every penny! Love the Vidget!!"My Autistic 6-year-old son has been able to focus more attentively while sitting on his Vidget. Not only is his overall focus better but his speech therapy has become more effective. We love the Vidget!"
"Thanks for such a great product
"After just 2 weeks of using this chair I can already see a huge difference with my daughter. I was expecting it would take some time for her to get used to the Vidget, but I was wrong. Thanks for such a great product."
"This chair is literally the best invention EVER!
I have the 3-6 year one, and the 6-9 year one, and they're awesome. They're so versatile! It can be used a a high up chair, then you flip it and it's a lower chair, then you flip it and it's a table. My daughter will use both chairs, and turn it into a table to color or do school work on! Seriously, everybody should have one of these chairs for their kids. This is made out of a really heavy duty, durable plastic. I really love the lime color too!"
Vidgets are Rockin' at home too!
