My Project

The desk bands and standing desk adaption in my cart will be beneficial to my middle school special education student. These items will encourage students to fulfill our sensory needs while still being able to work and minimizing distractions from surrounding peers.

The chair bands will allow students to stay seated and release energy and/or help maintain focus by allowing them to bounce or move their feet while working.

The desk adapter with foot band will allow my students that don't work as well sitting to stand and continue to concentrate on the work in front of them without having to bend or move locations. The foot band will also allow these students to release energy and/or maintain focus by allowing them to bounce or move their feet while working.
