LEARNING CLOUD ACTIVITY TABLES
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 results 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 their brains up, 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.

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.
Learning Clouds Activity Table Features:
Manufactured in the USA - All Learning Cloud Activity Table Sets are steel welded and built for high frequency use in school settings. Tables are designed to hold up against even the most "active" students. Includes 10 yr. frame direct from manufacturer extended warranty and factory direct discounts for schools.

- Portable
- Dimensions for Adjustable Table: 58"L x 26"W x 26"-36"H
- Dimensions for Folding Table: 58"L x 26"W x
Based on brain research, adding a certain level of exertion during the learning process can actually work to counteract the benefits of moving.
Uses:
CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION - Learning Cloud Activity Tables can be used with stools or as a standing activity center for younger students. Recognized as the most durable and heavy duty desk on the market, this Activity table is designed to for 20+ years in high frequency use settings! Includes wheels for easy portability.
ADD ACADEMICS - Teachers use the Cloud Tables 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 authors Shoecraft, Lengel, & Moize in ABL Books & Manuals)
GO FULLY KINESTHETIC! Outfit an entire classroom with multiple Cloud Activity Tables and various movement stations. Research indicates variety is KEY when implementing alternative seating and kinesthetic desks into an active classroom.
