Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

For this project, I am requesting wobble chairs for our students. They are an alternative to traditional seating- which gives kids a full range of movement and the stability they need to wobble without tipping over.

Wobble Chairs help Special Needs Students to be more focused and less distracted by their surroundings.

My students disabilities range from Muscular Dystrophy, Autism, ADD, ADHD, Other Health Impairments, Specific Learning Disability, among other disabilities.

Having these wobble chairs will help tremendously with attention and focus as well as keep them engaged in their classwork. The unique design of the wobble chairs also helps to strengthen core muscles while encouraging proper posture. Students are also able to easily pick up and move them anywhere in the classroom as well.
