Move To Learn

My students need a wobble seat and foot fidgets to help with excess energy. My students need to move while they are learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Murphy OT's classroom raised $298

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are so amazing! They work and try so hard to get their work done. They are fun, energetic and have great personalities. They laugh, giggle, and engage in all kinds of learning.

My students are creative, energetic and overcome many challenges that they face.

My students often have excess energy and sitting in a regular classroom chair for extended periods of time can be difficult. They need to move. When they are moving, learning can take place. Children report they can move and learn at the same time.

My Project

The wobble seats will provide needed movement of the whole body for students at their desks. The elastic foot bands will help keep busy feet busy and near the floor and not high kneeling on their chair. Students need functional choices to keep them learning and motivated.

Children who require movement report that with specific items they can get their movement and listen at the same time.

The goal is to support motivation and learning in classroom. Providing these items can help the student, their teacher, and the whole classroom. These small and important changes can make a difference.
