Mrs. Fernandez from Cottonwd Hts UT is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Feet Fidget and Focus

Help me give my students who fidget some relief by providing bouncy bands for a way to move their feet while they sit through instruction. This will allow them to sit comfortable to support their learning and improve their academic performance.

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

Many of my students have high energies and constantly need to fidget with their feet or hands while completing their work. The different foot bands will help give students a variety of the bands to help them gain focus in a gentle way.

The benefits to having these at their table to use freely include a calming effect while increasing focus, attention, concentration, memory, and posture.

The different fidgets will allow students who have additional needs to help them fidget in a distraction free zone with the appropriate fidgets to meet their needs. The lap desk will allow a student to complete their work away from their desk to help boost productivity.
