My Project

I work at a beautiful school in North Miami, where my students are as diverse as they come, as well as their needs.

At my school, we have students who are ESE and have accommodations according to their needs.

What has worked for me, is to be able to provide flexible seating options for my students, and our music teacher has been using floor seats, which are very popular with the students, so I would like to add 36 (three sets of 12) Fumet Floor Pillows that are round and only 15 x 15 inches, meaning that they can be stacked and fit comfortably in the classroom. These color chair cushions are also multicolored, which would enhance the sensory needs of the ESE students in the classroom.
