Seats for Success!

Help me give my students opportunities to be more successful while being able to focus and be comfortable while learning. students with ADHD require more movement and our current seats don’t give them the movement they need.

My Project

Please help my students find more success by finding a way to wiggle while working! Our current chairs do not give my students the movement they need in order to stay focused and learn in their best way. The students are either out of their seats, up on their knees, or rocking dangerously on them. I want to help the kids be safe and strong learners. I’m hoping that if they get some movement with either a wobble seat or cushion, they will stay seated, be safe, and find even more success.
