My students need 8 Neorok stools to provide flexible seating options to help maximize their performance and allow them the additional movement that is crucial for speech and language progress!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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.
Kids of all ages (preschool through fifth grade) come to the speech room each week! Each one is excited to come in and work on their goals. My students may be working on a speech sound or group of sounds, or they may have more needs requiring play-based therapy, social games, and/or assistive technology. Whatever the need, my kids always try their best and enjoy the one-on-one time. We make speech and language fun, even when we are targeting challenging skills.
My Project
Each year kids come in to our room very engaged and excited to learn. Almost weekly, we have students falling out of their chairs or getting stuck in them. Why? They are tipping them, standing up with their legs through the back home, sitting on the edge of the seat, etc. Some kids require the additional movement that standard chairs Just aren’t made for. This flexible seating will give kids a way to gain sensory input, exercise out their wiggles, and move (which research shows increases speech and language skills)! These stools will help remove a big barrier so kids can just worry about doing their best and not falling out of a chair:)
