SIT/STAND ICE II DESK
ABL manufactures classroom furniture designed to put the student’s brain into its most optimal learning state. All of our educational equipment has been created with neuroscience best practices in mind which result in improved student performance, enhanced effectiveness of curricula, and children’s energy channeled toward learning.
ABL active learning and sensory equipment provides a non-distracting, silent way to allow children to move, fidget, wake up their brains, and stay engaged and focused in the classroom. This makes it easy for schools to accommodate all learners, and keep the focus on serving the needs of the whole child. Action Based Learning aligns with the CDC framework for addressing health in schools, The Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child, or WSCC model.To learn more about the science behind movement and learning educational furniture, check out Action Based Learning Training Academy.
Benefits:
- Increases student mood and engagement in the classroom
- Improves student performance at school
- Enhances effectiveness of all curricula
- Channels student’s energy toward learning
Brain Based Movement:
Promotes low intensity steady state movement (LISS), crossing the midline, optimizes blood flow and oxygen to the brain, & activates BDNF, coined "Miracle Gro" for the brain by Dr. John Ratey. BDNF activates the brain in the process known as neurogenesis- the growth of new brain cells.

Based on brain research, adding a certain level of exertion during the learning process can actually work to counteract the benefits of moving. The Adjustable Sit/Stand ICE II Student for students is designed to activate Low Intensity Steady State Movement (LISS). To learn more about LISS, view the Science and Research behind Action Based Learning.
Uses:
CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION Easily transition from sit to stand with the simple hand lever. No cables, no motor, and no tools necessary.
ADD ACADEMICS Teachers use the sit/stand movement to engage students in countless activities!
MORNING WAKE UP - Start the morning off right with a brain booster! Have students warm-up their brains with a Walk & Talk session (suggested classroom activities provided by author Shoecraft, Lengel, & Moize in ABL Books & Manuals).
GO FULLY KINESTHETIC! Outfit an entire classroom with multiple sit/stand desks, and various movement stations. Research indicates variety is KEY when implementing alternative seating and kinesthetic desks into an active classroom
OR START SMALL - start with 1 single sit/stand Ice II desk in your classroom & implement rotation schedule for all students to benefit from the movement!
