Fidget Friends!

Funded Mar 21, 2020

My students loved their new fidgets. As soon as I showed them to the students they picked one and began using it. They were able to focus better, their academic participation increased while using it, and they were able to calm their bodies. They like holding them and figuring out how they work (the pea pods especially). They all have their chosen fidget and have access to them as needed. They enjoy squeezing, pulling, and twisting on them. The weighted lap blanket (not shown) has been used to calm an upset student and allowed him to feel more comfortable at school and stop him from crying as much.”
