Wiggly Learners Need Wiggly Chairs

My students need a chair/cushion that will help them focus on learning while exerting extra energy. These items will allow them to wiggle while staying focused on work.

My Students

My students are a very wiggly bunch this year. They want to learn and do their best, but sometimes have trouble focusing because of their energy level. They need sensory items to help release the energy to allow them to focus on learning.

My students are very lovable and mannerly children.

They love to learn and always come to school with a smile on their face. Although they face many challenges, they still work very hard and want to do their best. Please help them reach their full potential by providing them with the tools they need to succeed.

My Project

The yoga ball, crunch cushion, and Hokki stool are designed to help wiggly children get the movement that they need while allowing their minds to focus on the task at hand. Students will be able to use these materials throughout the room - as their chair at their desk, as a cushion on the rug, as well as in small groups.

Please help my project and give students the support they need to reach their full potential.

Your support will help to ease the stresses we face throughout the day with behaviors that are impeding my students from learning. Thank you!
