My project is about enabling our special education students top have the stimuli they need to keep their bodies moving while seated in their chair. In the new age of education, our students have so many restrictions, no touching friends or teachers, stay 6 feet apart, wear your mask, no playing on the playground, and the list goes on. Many of my special education students need to be able to move their bodies, now they are not allowed to move around the classroom, they need to stay seated in their chairs. The seat pads will allow them to move their torsos and give their body input, the chair bands will allow the children to bounce their legs without disturbing the student next to them. The headphones will allow the students at home to hear their teachers with less distractions and background noise. Thank you for all your help.
