Funded Dec 1, 2020My students love getting to try new thing! Yoga is something that everyone can enjoy and benefit from. The students in our department who have physical limitations were able to do modified versions of yoga poses that help coordination and balance. The first time the kids joined in with their teacher and the school occupational therapist to do a 12 minute session! Having the mats helped make things a little safer and gave a stable surface for some of our kids who struggle with balance.
The kids were thrilled to see the mats! They have done yoga in class before and the carpet in our classroom is very rough, having the mats helped keep their hands from rubbing on the carpet. They now look forward to their yoga time every week.
I am lucky enough to have some of the most amazing students and every day is a learning experience for all of us. We are looking forward to adding new books related to holidays, seasons, and important people. We also will be looking to add extra headphones since we tend to be a little rough on them :).
The most important part is to continue seeing the growth and progress these amazing rock stars of mine will make! Thank you so much for your support on this project!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Compton
