The students in our classroom are eager to learn to read and write, but they need help! The students this project will support are wiggly students. They are all unique in their own way but they share one thing in common; they're learning to be students! These students have a variety of disabilities that make it difficult to sit still and focus.
The items that we're requesting will help our class learn to self-regulate by recognizing what their bodies need in order to be successful. Currently I allow my students to move around the classroom as they work to make them feel more comfortable being in a relaxed setting. As they more around the classroom I have noticed them leaning against walls and cabinets to support themselves while using books and folders to do their work on.
Flexible seating like Flex-Space Balance Ball Seats in a special education classroom would impact my students and alter their learning experiences and I feel that flexible seating will really work for my students. The flexible seating chairs like a Flex-Space Wobble Cushions that were requested will help the students enjoy the freedom of moving around the classroom with the individual lap desk. A variety of seating options like Flex-Space Big Beanbag Seats will provide students with ADD/ADHD a chance to wiggle while they learn. All of our students with special needs would immediately benefit from the requested items.
The hands on reading comprehension and math activities such as Picture It! Daily Comprehension Activities and leveled reading activities that were requested are specifically designed to meet the needs of all the different types of learners in my classroom. The activities like Match & Sort Language Quickies were selected based on each students' individual educational needs. Students will benefit from individualized instruction when using these resources.
