My Project

Students with special needs do nor have chaiirs suited to help them thrive in the classroom. These chairs will help them to focus during circle time, self regulate and provide support for special needs students with poor motor/core strengrh. These chairs will help peovide physical support as well as calminf effect to help them focus and learn circle times lessons more effectively. The current chairs in the classroom are not age appropriate and school has limited funding to provide what is necessary to help the students thrive and cannot offer replacements.
