Special Needs Class NEEDS beanbags

My students need beanbags.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Jacob's classroom raised $531

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students require lots of physical prompting and specialized instruction throughout the school day. Most of my students require assistance feeding and with toilet/bathroom needs.

My students are in a self-contained classroom for students with disabilities.

Some have physical limitations and need a wheel-chair for mobility. It would be amazing for each student to have a beanbag to sit and or lay on during group work and activities. Beanbags would benefit all my students.

My Project

My students will use the beanbags daily during group instruction and free time. By having the beanbags, it will allow each student to have their own so we can do group activities throughout the day. The beanbags will be used during reading and morning activities.

It will not only improve academic performance but it will improve the overall quality of life for my students.

It will provide stability and give them independence during class time.
