Most of my students have autism or ADHD, and work every day in a traditional school setting without items that embrace their natural needs to move, to feel comfortable, and to fidget. My hopes are to create a space for my students where they can feel comfortable and feel that they can be themselves without being told to be still and stay focus on a lesson. The items in this project gears towards students' sensory of touch, movement, and sight. These items can be easily used in classroom to provide comfort throughout their day, while not distratcing the classroom environment.
