My Project

Some children with sensory processing difficulties, attention deficit disorder, and autism (among others), have difficulty staying seated and benefit from active seating options to support attention and focus.

The adaptive seating in this project is supporting my students with sensory needs and will allow them to have other options in the classroom to support their overall attention and focus.

Their sensory systems may be seeking more information in the form of wiggling, fidgeting, and repositioning themselves. Sensory seating or active seating can allow for movement in order to promote better engagement and redirect potentially disruptive fidgeting behaviors.
