My Project

The students in my class need some movement in order to increase the oxygen and blood flow to their brains. Sitting in a typical student chair for our 83 minute block schedule can be tedious.

With flexible seating my class will be able to sit in a more relaxing and comfortable environment.

Several of my students have scoliosis as well as ADHD so sitting can often be very painful and having the ability to rock safely would be wonderful.

I would love to see my kids more comfortably engaged in the classroom with the ability to move and not be a distraction to themselves or others.
