Flexible Seating for Wiggly Students!

Help me give my students flexible seating options that allow them to move.

My Project

Many of my students have sensory regulation needs and require movement to help them stay focused on learning. Students who need movement often have difficulty completing work and become a distraction to other learners in the classroom.

Wobble seats help students get the sensory input they are looking for while remaining seated.

This allows them to concentrate and engage better in class.

Unfortunately, these chairs are very expensive, and our school only has one (which another teacher received through DonorsChoose). I would like to give my students this tool to support their learning.

Ms. Bell
Grades 9-12
  • Dirigo High School
  • Dixfield, ME
  • Half of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 74 students.
