My Project

I teach kindergarten. Wiggles are a part of the classroom day. We do lots of movement breaks and activities throughout the day but our daily schedule requires some sit down time at our seats to work on writing and math activities.

Some students have more wiggles inside them than others and have a harder time sitting in their seats.

I would love to try these sensory cushions that students will be able to use while seated at their chair.

These cushions will allow students to move quietly and expel excess energy while seated, enabling them to stay on task and be more productive. This will help them to continue to learn and grow in the classroom.
