Lets Get Those Wiggles Out!
Funded Jan 24, 2020
My students get extremely excited to choose their flexible seating option every morning! We use them to maintain engagement during whole group activities and small group work. When we were watching the Nutcracker Ballet this year, these wonderful seating options helped my students maintain social distancing, remain in their personal space, and better attend to the task!
The first time my students go to choose their seating, they were overwhelmed with choices. Some of them made 2 or more seating choices each day during the first week! All of them had extremely positive behavior improvements when given a new flexible seating option as opposed to the traditional classroom chair.
Our next adventure will hopefully be to add some personalized technology to the lives of my students! My hope for the future is for them to have tablets that can transition them effortlessly from school to home and back again!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Bohannon
This classroom project was brought to life by BJ's Wholesale.

Integration of sensory materials allows students to focus on their learning and relieve stress and anxiety that is common in the school setting. Currently my students are limited in their means of sensory relief, with only toys that are loud, distracting, or require more than one friend to use. If they cannot get their sensory fix in the classroom, we must venture to another teacher's room. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a chance to satiate their sensory needs. They almost always make good choices about what they need to keep them focused and engaged. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given sensory breaks. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them appropriate sensory options to make more effective learning choices. The small hand and desk fidgets will help students keep their hands to themselves during group activities. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need something in their hands. They can also be used a a reward! The larger fidgets will allow for a chance to take a brain break and get their sensory input as well. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
