My Project

The products that we have selected will help our students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The wobble stools will allow students to sit at their desks, but still allow some movement. The wobble stools will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. They can also be used as an alternative chair if needed! The bouncy bands are anther tool that allows students so sit at their desks and bounce their legs to get their wiggles out. Finally, the classroom rugs with color coded spots will help students find their floor spots quickly, while also sitting comfortably. Two classroom rugs will allow us to split the students into two smaller groups and teach them simultaneously. Teaching the students in a smaller group will help them stay focused and on task.

We have seen how seating choice can positively affect all students, including those with disabilities.

We hope these additional options will help our students grow even more!
