Ergonomic Work Station

Help me give my students an ergonomic work station to help support support their posture. Students need appropriate work stations when they are working for an extended time.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Murphy OT's classroom raised $253

My Students

My students are so amazing. They work so hard in their classrooms and in OT. Movement helps our students focus and concentrate in the classroom. Sensory activities promote improved body awareness and focus and motivate them to complete their classroom work. Fine motor activities help with strengthening of hands. My students need writing support to be able to be great writers.

My Project

This can provide students with an ergonomic work station for extended typing. Students need correct furniture and the ability to be able to work for an extended amount of time. Proper heights are important to prevent fatigue. This can be set up in the classroom for many students to have access to. Students that are provided with a quiet comfortable work area, can be able to complete more assignments on time. The portability of these items can also be utilized to make needed changes. Work stations are helpful to promote a positive learning environment.
