Student Pedal Desk [6-12th Grade]

Student Pedal Desks for middle and high school classrooms include adjustable resistance to accommodate all physical capabilities. Tabletop and seat height adjust. The pedal desk is the #1 most popular desk for middle and high school classrooms. The pedal motion is similar to a bicycle and students and teachers love it!  Students pedal while they participate in regular classroom activities, and since the pedals are silent, they don't interfere with classroom instruction or activities.


BENEFITS (KC-757) PEDAL DESK:

  • Improves academic achievement
  • Improves mood and behavior
  • Students are excited to learn
  • The pedal desk is designed specifically to put the brain and body into its most optimal learning state. Promotes Low intensity steady state movement (LISS), 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. YES - using the pedal desk is actually growing new brain cells!

Uses:

CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION Children with pedals under their desk can work their legs in a motion similar to a bicycle, while participating in classroom discussion, or doing their classwork. 

Desk is user powered, making movement optional! Although rare, students not interested in moving, have the option to relax and listen in class! 

PARTNER WORK While one child pedals, their partner stands on a balance board on the opposite side of the pedal desk.

ADD ACADEMICS Teachers use the pedal movement to engage students in countless activities! For example: Students answer questions during instruction by either pedaling forward, backward, pausing, speeding up, or slowing down pedaling!

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 multiperson pedal desks, and various movement stations (video below). Research indicates variety is KEY when implementing alternative seating and kinesthetic desks into an active classroom

OR START SMALL! start with 1 single pedal desk in your classroom & implement a rotation schedule for all students to benefit from the movement!
