Meeting Movement Needs!!

Help me give my students access to education by meeting their sensory and attention needs.

My Project

Wiggle cushions are a great resource for students with ADHD and movement needs. Our students’ sensory and attention needs must be met before they are ready to learn curriculum content.

Wiggle cushions are a tool to help meet student needs and create a more focused environment for our young learners!

All students have diverse learning profiles and by providing wiggle cushions, we are helping to meet those learning needs. Please help me meet my 1st grade students’ needs by donating to this project. :)

Thank you in advance for helping these first grade scholars be successful in school!
