My Project

I am a special education teacher and most of my students have issues with sitting still to learn. Their bodies need to be able to move. Therefore I know using wobble cushions on their seats will benefit them greatly. Also, I want to start providing interactive writing lessons using our Smartboard. To do this, I would like to provide floor cushions. Lastly, many of my students in grades 3rd-6th do not know coin value. My chosen items will help provide the flexible seating they need and help them learn basic skills of money.
