My Project

Hello! My special education classroom is a warm and safe place for learners of all abilities to work and play. Help me make my new, bigger room an even greater space for learning, while still supporting students' back health.

In my own experience as a neurodiverse learner, having flexible seating options means that I can focus on the speaker rather than my own sensory needs for movement.

I want to share that experience with my students.

My previous project helped to fill my classroom with games to increase student learning. It would help students relax into the experience if they could play anywhere - not just at tables and desks.
