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
First graders need to WIGGLE and MOVE! Often they are still learning what is expected at school. In addition, children are facing more stress, anxiety, and other pressures that were less common in the past. Students' abilities to focus on learning are significantly reduced when they face these vulnerability factors.
All students should have every possible opportunity to be successful at school.
I want to offer several types of seating to meet different needs. Balance balls will help students who need sensory input as well as movement. Wiggle Feet and Bouncy Bands will support students who need only slight movement to focus. Wiggle Cushions and Wiggle Wobble Chair Feet will benefit students who need movement but also need to develop a sense of body position and space. In addition, all these seating options are fun! Learning should be fun. Please help me provide flexible seating for students who need support to overcome factors beyond their control. They need to move!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
