My Project

There are many transitions throughout the day in a classroom and transitions can be noisy when 22 students are sliding their chairs across the floor. Adding the tennis ball feet covers to all the chairs in my classroom will create a quieter and calmer environment in the classroom.

About 1/3 of my students have special needs and are sensitive to any extra noises or distractions in the classroom.

The chair covers will eliminate a lot of extra noise throughout the day and help students stay regulated and focused. All students benefit from a calm classroom environment with minimal distractions.
