My Project

Our classroom is an inclusive space, where we want all children to have the opportunity to do their best. For some students, this means using tools to help with their attention. A variety of seating options and calming tools can help students learn more effectively, as well as begin to regulate their emotions with greater independence.

These wiggle stools and calm strips will give our youngest students what they need to learn in the way that works best for them as individuals.

The more focused students are, the more they can learn and enjoy school!
