My Project

My students suffered the "Covid void" during formative years of schooling. To combat this lacking skill set, I want to offer some flexibility where I can.

I seek to remove some of the comfort barriers to help students transition to the school environment in order to focus on the learning.

Wobble stools help wiggly bodies expend that excess energy. Cushions help students be able to sit for extended periods of time. Students bodies are not built for prolonged seating. Their coccyges are not fully developed, and that year of covid did not help. Kick bands help students quietly expell excess energy physically.

My students can learn, and should have the environment to do so. I plan to spread these materials out among my students to provide help where needed. Please help me provide that environment.
