Fidgety Feet Need Love Too

Help me give my students these chair bands to help them focus while they are doing their work; as the majority of the students are ESE and will benefit from having these.

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

These chair bands will allow fidgety students to be able to focus better during class lessons.

Instead of having students get up to walk around because they need to fidget, now with these bands they are able to stay in their seats and focus.

This year I'm getting a special bunch of students with different exceptionalities and I would like to have something in my classroom that will help them focus. By having these bands, students will be able to eliminate the urge to get up and disrupt the class; therefore, they will bring less attention to themselves. By having one band for each student, no one student will be singled out for needing the band. Instead, all students will be treated equally.
