My Project
I have little friends in my classroom that are constantly needing to be in motion. They need the rocking and the vibration feeling to help him get through their day to day routine. If only we could bring the outside swing and rocking chairs into the classroom because that is their only motivation.
With your help, students with hearing and vision impartment and ADHD who can't sit at circle time like their peers, will be able to sit properly and contribute during whole group and small group activities.
My little friends will be able to use the adaptive seating to pay attention and to sit like their peers, stay in motion and help them focus all in one.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
