My Project

The goal for this project is to provide a more comfortable, independent working environment while helping sensory needs too. These items will help my students with motivation, sensory breaks, as well as an independent comfortable seating option to do their work. My students have intensive needs where they need frequent movement breaks or more comfortable, sensory motivated seating in the classroom. Some of my students struggle to sit in a large group for long periods of time. Some of my students struggle to sit next to people. Some of my students struggle with being quiet. These items will help my me and the students be successful!
